Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of positioning ring technology, and in particular to a manual positioning ring. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of metal and non-metal processing, especially in scenarios involving high-precision positioning of CNC pallets and substrates, existing CNC pallet positioners have the following drawbacks when using their positioning rings: Firstly, the fit accuracy between the existing positioning ring and the positioning pins / guiding pins is easily affected by manufacturing tolerances, making it difficult to eliminate dimensional errors in the positioning parts, resulting in low repeatability and failing to meet precision machining requirements. Secondly, during long-term use, wear on the positioning parts accumulates errors, severely affecting equipment stability and processing quality. Furthermore, errors in the mounting hole spacing accuracy and the thermal expansion and contraction effects caused by changes in ambient temperature can both increase the clearance between the positioning ring and the positioning pin, thus increasing the risk of positioning failure.

[0005] Preferably, the lower surface of the positioning sleeve has an installation hole, and the tapered sleeve, gasket, washer and retaining ring are all fitted into the installation hole.
[0006] Preferably, a positioning groove is provided in the mounting hole at the position corresponding to the washer, and the washer is disposed in the positioning groove; an annular groove is provided in the mounting hole at the position corresponding to the retaining ring, and the retaining ring is disposed in the annular groove.
[0007] Preferably, the upper surface of the positioning sleeve is provided with a threaded hole, and the threaded hole is connected to the mounting hole.
