Abstract

The utility model provides a bin, belonging to the technical field of machine tool processing auxiliary equipment. It solves problems such as inaccurate positioning of existing pallets. This bin includes a pallet. The pallet includes a main board in the shape of a rectangular plate, and bases are respectively fixed at both ends of the main board. The bases are located below the main board. The bin further includes a positioning frame for supporting the pallet. The top of the positioning frame has a top board in the shape of a "C", and the top board includes two side plate parts and an intermediate part integrally connected between the two side plate parts. The two side plate parts are arranged corresponding to the two bases one by one. On each side plate part, there is a positioning cone protruding upwards in a conical shape, and on the bottom surface of the base, there is a circular positioning hole for the positioning cone to insert into. This bin improves the accuracy of pallet positioning.
