[0050] Multiple sliding plates 7 are used to support the trapezoidal block 6, and the multiple sliding plates 7 are fixedly welded to the outer wall of the positioning platform 1;

[0051] The movable rod 8 and the pad 9 are used to move the pad 9 downward. The movable rod 8 is slidably connected inside the positioning platform 1, and the top of the movable rod 8 is fixedly welded with the pad 9.

[0058] Specifically, this device is suitable for processing metal rods, steel pipes, or shafts. When processing a rod, the rod is placed above two support blocks 2. The rod will then contact the pad 9 first. The pad 9 will move downwards under the pressure of the rod, which will cause the moving rod 8 to move downwards.

The controller 16 will control the bidirectional electric telescopic rod 4 to operate. The bidirectional electric telescopic rod 4 will drive the two side partitions 5 to move inward, drive the trapezoidal block 6 to move, and press the rod-shaped metal to achieve the effect of automatically pressing the rod-shaped metal.

[0064] In the embodiment: the inside of the pad 9 is arc-shaped, and the two guide rods 13 are arranged inside the two springs 12;

An anti-slip groove is provided on the side of the trapezoidal block 6 that is close to each other, allowing for better clamping of the rod-shaped metal and achieving a fixed effect. The support block 2 is V-shaped and can be used to clamp rod-shaped metal of different sizes, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the support block 2 and the trapezoidal block 6 are staggered, so that the smaller rod-shaped metal will not be unable to be properly compressed due to downward or opposite movement.

[0070] In this embodiment: the controller 16, pressure sensor 15 and bidirectional electric telescopic rod 4 are existing structures, and the control circuit can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art. They are common knowledge in the art, and are only used without modification. Therefore, the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.

[0071] Working principle: The rod-shaped metal is placed above the two support blocks 2, and the rod-shaped metal contacts the pad block 9, which drives the moving rod 8 to move down, and drives the extrusion plate to move down, making contact with the pressure sensor 15. At this time, the signal is transmitted to the controller 16. The controller 16 controls the bidirectional electric telescopic rod 4 to operate, which drives the partitions 5 on both sides to move. The partitions 5 will drive the trapezoidal block 6 to move, thereby pressing the rod-shaped metal to achieve the effect of fixing the rod-shaped metal. It can achieve the effect of automatically clamping the rod-shaped metal and can keep the rod-shaped metal in a centered position, which is convenient for subsequent processing.
