[0002] Automobile manufacturing processes utilize a large number of various pipes. When using these pipes, punching is required. However, fixing the pipes during punching is inconvenient, and clamping can easily obstruct the punching position. Furthermore, the punching position cannot be easily adjusted after clamping, making the punching process inconvenient and inefficient. Therefore, a device is needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a punching fixture for processing automotive pipe parts, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a punching fixture for processing automotive pipe fittings, comprising a first electric push rod, a track plate, a pipe fitting fixing plate, and a clamping locking part. The track plates are symmetrically distributed, and the fixed mounting plate is installed on the bottom outer end of the track plate. The first electric push rod is fixedly installed on one end of the track plate. The clamping locking part is disposed on the track plate, and the pipe fitting fixing plate is clamped and fixed inside the clamping locking part.

[0005] Preferably, the clamping locking part includes a first clamping fixing body, a sliding support plate, and a second clamping fixing body. The first clamping fixing body and the second clamping fixing body are arranged in a mirror-symmetrical manner, and the first clamping fixing body and the second clamping fixing body have the same structure. The sliding support plate is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the first clamping fixing body and the second clamping fixing body.

[0006] Preferably, the first clamping and fixing body includes a second electric push rod, a first fixing frame, a second fixing frame, a fixing mounting plate, and a clamping ring. The first fixing frame and the second fixing frame are fixedly installed together by bolts. The second electric push rod is evenly fixedly installed between the first fixing frame and the second fixing frame.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] This utility model employs a mirror-symmetrical first and second clamping and fixing body. Multiple sets of second electric push rods drive the clamping rings to move synchronously, achieving centered fixing of the pipe fitting. This avoids the skewing or obstruction of the punching area caused by traditional single-point clamping. The rubber gasket design enhances friction to prevent slippage and prevents deformation of the pipe fitting due to rigid clamping, which is especially critical for thin-walled pipe fittings. The first electric push rod drives the sliding support plate to move along the track plate, achieving longitudinal position adjustment of the pipe fitting. By controlling the asynchronous extension and retraction of the second electric push rods on both sides, one side extends while the other retracts, driving the pipe fitting to move laterally. The punching position can be continuously adjusted without loosening the clamp, significantly improving processing efficiency. A laser rangefinder sensor monitors the distance between the sensor and the detection block in real time, accurately feeding back the lateral displacement of the pipe fitting. Data linkage controls the action of the second electric push rods, ensuring the moving distance meets the set value and avoiding errors during cumulative movement adjustment. The snap-fit ​​structure between the sliding support plate and the track plate ensures smooth movement and reliable load-bearing. The fixed mounting plate and clamping rings can be easily removed and replaced. Attached Figure Description

[0017] Please see Figure 1-3 The present invention provides an embodiment of a punching fixture for processing automotive pipe fittings, comprising a first electric push rod 1, a track plate 2, pipe fitting fixing and mounting plates 3 and 4, and a clamping and locking part 5. The track plates 2 are symmetrically distributed, the 4 is fixedly installed on the bottom outer end of the track plate 2, the first electric push rod 1 is fixedly installed on one end of the track plate 2, the clamping and locking part 5 is disposed on the track plate 2, and the pipe fitting fixing and mounting plate 3 is clamped and fixed inside the clamping and locking part 5.

[0018] The clamping and locking part 5 includes a first clamping and fixing body 6, a sliding support plate 7, and a second clamping and fixing body 8. The first clamping and fixing body 6 and the second clamping and fixing body 8 are arranged in a mirror-symmetrical manner, and the first clamping and fixing body 6 and the second clamping and fixing body 8 have the same structure. The sliding support plate 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the first clamping and fixing body 6 and the second clamping and fixing body 8.

[0019] The first clamping and fixing body 6 includes a second electric push rod 11, a first fixing frame 12, a second fixing frame 13, a fixing mounting plate 14, and a clamping ring 15. The first fixing frame 12 and the second fixing frame 13 are fixedly installed together by bolts. The second electric push rod 11 is evenly fixedly installed between the first fixing frame 12 and the second fixing frame 13. The fixing mounting plate 14 is fixedly installed at the front end of the second electric push rod 11 by bolts. The clamping ring 15 is fixedly connected to the fixing mounting plate 14.

[0020] Laser rangefinders 18 are uniformly fixedly installed on the inner side of the first fixed frame 12. A detection block 9 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the clamping ring 15, and the detection block 9 is located directly in front of the laser rangefinder 18. During the lateral movement adjustment, the laser rangefinder 18 detects the distance between itself and the detection block 9. It can detect and monitor in real time whether the lateral movement distance of the pipe fitting fixing plate 3 is the set distance, and after feedback, control the operation of the second electric push rod 11 to make drilling accurate.

[0021] A rubber gasket 16 is fixedly installed inside the clamping ring 15 by bolts. The rubber gasket 16 can make the clamping ring 15 fully and firmly clamp and fix the pipe fitting mounting plate 3, and can also prevent the pipe fitting mounting plate 3 from being squeezed and deformed.

[0022] The sliding support plate 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the second fixed frame 13. The sliding support plate 7 is slidably engaged with the track plate 2. The front end of the first electric push rod 1 is fixedly connected to the sliding support plate 7, which can control the sliding adjustment of the sliding support plate 7.

[0023] Working Principle: The device is fixedly installed at the designated location through the fixing holes on 4. The two ends of the pipe fitting fixing plate 3 to be punched are placed between the first clamping fixing body 6 and the second clamping fixing body 8. Then, the second electric push rod 11 in the first clamping fixing body 6 and the second clamping fixing body 8 are activated simultaneously, driving the clamping rings 15 to move towards the pipe fitting fixing plate 3. This allows the evenly mirror-symmetrically distributed clamping rings 15 to clamp and center the pipe fitting fixing plate 3 at multiple points between the first clamping fixing body 6 and the second clamping fixing body 8, facilitating the precise punching of the external punching hole on the fixed pipe fitting fixing plate 3. During the punching process, activating the first electric push rod 1 allows the sliding support plate 7 in the first clamping fixing body 6 and the second clamping fixing body 8 to slide and adjust its position along the track plate 2, so that the pipe fitting fixing plate 3 clamped and fixed in the middle of the first clamping fixing body 6 and the second clamping fixing body 8 can be... Adjust the drilling position and activate the second electric push rod 11 in the first clamping and fixing body 6 or the second clamping and fixing body 8. This causes the second electric push rod 11 on one side to extend forward and the second electric push rod 11 on the other side to retract. This allows the clamping rings 15, which are symmetrically distributed to clamp the pipe fitting fixing plate 3, to move and adjust the pipe fitting fixing plate 3 laterally. This allows the pipe fitting fixing plate 3 to complete lateral and longitudinal position adjustments during the punching process, enabling continuous and convenient punching. During the lateral movement adjustment, the laser range sensor 18 detects the distance between itself and the detection block 9, which can detect and monitor in real time whether the lateral movement distance of the pipe fitting fixing plate 3 is the set distance. The feedback then controls the operation of the second electric push rod 11, ensuring accurate drilling. The rubber gasket 16 allows the clamping rings 15 to fully clamp and fix the pipe fitting fixing plate 3, while also preventing the pipe fitting fixing plate 3 from being squeezed and deformed.
