Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clamps, and in particular to a positioning clamp for automated machines. Background Technology

[0002] During graphite plate processing, the graphite plates need to be clamped to hold them in a specific position on the processing machine and prevent misalignment. When processing graphite plates in batches, the clamping and unclamping processes are time-consuming, and the position of the graphite plates needs to be adjusted each time. Maintaining consistent clamping accuracy is difficult and can easily lead to a loss of processing precision in subsequent steps. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to improve the processing accuracy of graphite plates and save the time required for the installation and removal of graphite plates, this utility model provides a positioning fixture for automated machines.

[0004] This utility model provides a technical solution that adopts the following approach:

[0005] An automated machine positioning fixture includes a support base and a vacuum section. The support base is used to place a support graphite plate, and the vacuum section is located on the support surface of the support base. When the graphite plate is placed on the support base, the graphite plate covers part or all of the vacuum section of the support base. The vacuum section is connected to a negative pressure device. The support base is also provided with a limiting member for restricting the position of the graphite plate.

[0006] The graphite plate is placed on the support base so that it covers part or all of the vacuum section. Then, the negative pressure device is turned on, causing the vacuum section to enter a suction state, thereby holding the graphite plate in place. At the same time, the limiting component restricts the position of the graphite plate, keeping it in a suitable position for processing. This helps save time required for installing and removing the graphite plate. Furthermore, the positional restriction of multiple graphite plates by the same limiting component reduces the frequency of positional adjustments required, improves the installation efficiency of the graphite plates, and enhances the clamping accuracy, thereby improving the processing accuracy of the graphite plates.

[0007] Preferably, the support base is provided with a boss, which is used to fit the groove on the side wall of the graphite plate, and the vacuum part is provided on the upper surface of the boss.

[0008] When the graphite plate has a groove with a matching boss on the side near the support, the groove is aligned with the boss and snapped down, covering the suction part of the boss. This allows the graphite plate to be adsorbed by the vacuum section. For smaller graphite plates, they can be placed directly on the boss, covering part or all of the vacuum section to fix the plate in place. The boss supports or restricts the graphite plate, improving the stability of the vacuum section's adsorption and preventing displacement. Furthermore, the vacuum section's adsorption restricts the graphite plate's movement, ensuring even force distribution and preventing deformation caused by uneven force distribution similar to traditional clamps.

[0009] Preferably, the vacuum section includes a vent hole, multiple horizontal grooves and vertical grooves, the vent hole is connected to the output end of the negative pressure device, and the multiple horizontal grooves and vertical grooves are all connected to the vent hole.

[0010] Preferably, the multiple transverse grooves are parallel to each other, the multiple longitudinal grooves are parallel to each other, the transverse grooves and longitudinal grooves are staggered, the multiple transverse grooves are equidistantly distributed on the upper surface of the boss, the multiple longitudinal grooves are equidistantly distributed on the upper surface of the boss, one of the longitudinal grooves and the transverse grooves pass through the vent hole, the multiple transverse grooves are connected in a wave shape, and the multiple longitudinal grooves are connected in a wave shape.

[0011] While the longitudinal and transverse grooves are interconnected, the ends of multiple longitudinal grooves are also connected, and the ends of multiple transverse grooves are also connected. This can improve the tightness of the connection between multiple grooves. While making full use of the space on the upper surface of the boss to set up the vacuum section, it can prevent the flow of gas between multiple grooves, making the adsorption of graphite plates more stable.

[0012] Preferably, the support base is also provided with multiple positioning grooves, and positioning posts are inserted into the positioning grooves. The positioning posts are set to correspond to the positioning holes on the side wall of the graphite plate.

[0013] The combination of the positioning pin and the positioning hole makes it less likely for the graphite plate to shift relative to the support base, which helps to reinforce the graphite plate and make it more stable during processing, thus improving the stability and accuracy of graphite plate processing.

[0014] Preferably, when the positioning post is inserted into the positioning groove, the top of the positioning post is higher than the top of the boss.

[0015] The positioning posts can guide the installation of the graphite plate, making it easier to align the grooves of the graphite plate with the bosses, which helps to improve the convenience of graphite plate installation.

[0016] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0017] The graphite plate is placed on the support base so that it covers part or all of the vacuum section. Then, the negative pressure device is turned on, causing the vacuum section to enter a suction state, thereby holding the graphite plate in place. At the same time, the limiting component restricts the position of the graphite plate, keeping it in a suitable position for processing. This helps save time required for installing and removing the graphite plate. Furthermore, the positional restriction of multiple graphite plates by the same limiting component reduces the frequency of positional adjustments required, improves the installation efficiency of the graphite plates, and enhances the clamping accuracy, thereby improving the processing accuracy of the graphite plates.

[0019] Explanation of reference numerals in the attached diagram: 1. Support base; 2. Boss; 3. Vent hole; 4. Positioning groove; 5. Positioning post. Detailed Implementation

[0020] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 The present invention will be described in further detail below.

[0021] This utility model discloses a positioning fixture for automated machines.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 An automated machine positioning fixture includes a support base 1 and a vacuum section. The support base 1 is used to place a support graphite plate, and the vacuum section is located on the support surface of the support base 1. When the graphite plate is placed on the support base 1, the graphite plate covers part or all of the vacuum section of the support base 1. The vacuum section is connected to a negative pressure device. The support base 1 is also provided with a limiting member for restricting the position of the graphite plate.

[0023] The graphite plate is placed on the support base 1, so that the graphite plate covers part or all of the vacuum section. Then, the negative pressure device is turned on, so that the vacuum section is in a suction state, thereby holding the graphite plate. At the same time, the limiting component restricts the position of the graphite plate, so that the graphite plate is restricted to a suitable position for processing. This helps to save the time required for the installation and removal of the graphite plate. In addition, the position restriction of multiple graphite plates by the same limiting component can reduce the frequency of the graphite plate position adjustment, improve the installation efficiency of the graphite plate, improve the clamping accuracy of the graphite plate, and thus improve the processing accuracy of the graphite plate.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the support base 1 is provided with a boss 2, which is used to fit the groove on the side wall of the graphite plate, and the vacuum part is provided on the upper surface of the boss 2.

[0025] When the graphite plate has a groove on the side of the support base 1 that matches the boss 2, the groove is aligned with the boss 2 and snapped down, thus covering the suction part of the boss 2. This allows the graphite plate to be adsorbed by the vacuum part. For smaller graphite plates, the graphite plate can be placed directly on the boss 2, covering part or all of the vacuum part to fix the graphite plate. The boss 2 can support or restrict the graphite plate, which helps improve the stability of the graphite plate adsorbed by the vacuum part and makes the graphite plate less prone to displacement. Furthermore, the adsorption of the graphite plate by the vacuum part restricts its movement, ensuring that the graphite plate is subjected to balanced forces throughout, which helps prevent the graphite plate from deforming due to uneven forces caused by clamping similar to traditional jigs.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the vacuum section includes a vent 3, multiple horizontal grooves and vertical grooves. The vent 3 is connected to the output end of the negative pressure device, and the multiple horizontal grooves and vertical grooves are all connected to the vent 3.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, multiple horizontal grooves are parallel to each other, multiple vertical grooves are parallel to each other, and the horizontal and vertical grooves are staggered. Multiple horizontal grooves are equidistantly distributed on the upper surface of the boss 2, and multiple vertical grooves are equidistantly distributed on the upper surface of the boss 2. One of the vertical grooves and the horizontal grooves penetrate the vent hole 3. Multiple horizontal grooves are connected in a wave shape, and multiple vertical grooves are connected in a wave shape.

[0028] While the longitudinal and transverse grooves are connected to each other, the ends of multiple longitudinal grooves are connected, and the ends of multiple transverse grooves are also connected, which can improve the tightness of the connection between multiple grooves. While making full use of the space on the upper surface of the boss 2 to set up the vacuum section, it can prevent the flow of gas between multiple grooves, making the adsorption of graphite plate more stable.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, the support base 1 is also provided with a plurality of positioning grooves 4, and positioning posts 5 are inserted into the positioning grooves 4. The positioning posts 5 are set to correspond to the positioning holes on the side wall of the graphite plate.

[0030] The cooperation between the positioning pin 5 and the positioning hole makes it less likely for the graphite plate to shift relative to the support base 1, which helps to reinforce the graphite plate and make it more stable during processing, thus improving the stability and accuracy of graphite plate processing.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, when the positioning post 5 is inserted into the positioning groove 4, the top of the positioning post 5 is higher than the top of the boss 2.

[0032] The positioning post 5 can guide the installation of the graphite plate, making it easier for the groove of the graphite plate to align with the boss 2, which helps to improve the convenience of graphite plate installation.

[0033] The above are all preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
