In automobile engines, the precision of the connecting rod directly affects the engine's combustion efficiency, power output, and running stability.

[0003] A fixture for multi-process integrated machining of connecting rods, disclosed in CN114131376A, includes a drive mechanism, a mounting base, and three mounting mechanisms. Each mounting mechanism includes two clamping components, a engaging post, and a limiting post. The device drives a supporting seat to slide on the mounting base towards the clamping components via a lifting component, thereby pushing the connecting rod to slide and clamping it between the clamping components and the supporting seat. After fixing the connecting rod, machining is performed. However, the fixed positions of the supporting seat and limiting post limiters mean that this device can only fix connecting rods of specific specifications, making it difficult to adapt to clamping and machining connecting rods of different specifications and lengths. It has poor flexibility, requires changing different fixtures during use, is cumbersome, increases machining costs, and affects machining efficiency.

[0018] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the present invention.

[0019] A multi-angle small connecting rod machining fixture, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes a mounting plate 1, a rotating plate 3, a worm gear 4, a knob 5, a worm wheel 6, a clamping assembly, and a fixing assembly. The mounting plate 1 has two mounting holes 2 on both the left and right sides for easy fixing. The rotating plate 3 is rotatably connected to the middle of the mounting plate 1, and the worm gear 4 is rotatably connected to the front of the mounting plate 1. The knob 5 is connected to the right side of the worm gear 4 for easy gripping and rotating. The worm wheel 6 is connected to the lower part of the rotating plate 3, and the worm wheel 6 meshes with the worm gear 4. The rotating plate 3 is provided with a clamping assembly for clamping the small connecting rod, and the upper left side of the rotating plate 3 is provided with a fixing assembly for fixing the small connecting rod.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the clamping assembly includes a fixed plate 7, a guide rod 8, a common lead screw 9, a sliding frame 10, a bidirectional lead screw 11, and a clamping frame 12. The left and right sides of the rotating plate 3 are connected to the fixed plate 7. The front parts of the fixed plate 7 are connected to the guide rod 8. The rear parts of the fixed plate 7 are rotatably connected to the common lead screw 9. The common lead screw 9 is threadedly connected to the sliding frame 10. The sliding frame 10 is slidably connected to the guide rod 8. The right side of the sliding frame 10 is rotatably connected to the bidirectional lead screw 11. The front and rear parts of the bidirectional lead screw 11 are threadedly connected to the clamping frame 12. The clamping frame 12 is slidably connected to the sliding frame 10.

[0021] like Figure 3 As shown, the fixing assembly includes a positioning post 13, a top pressing block 14, and a spring 15. The positioning post 13 is connected to the upper left side of the rotating plate 3. Three top pressing blocks 14 are slidably connected to the upper part of the positioning post 13. The top pressing blocks 14 are evenly distributed along the positioning post 13. Each top pressing block 14 is connected to the positioning post 13 by two upper and two lower springs 15.

[0022] When machining small connecting rods used in automobiles, this device can be used. The mounting plate 1 contacts the machining or support equipment, and the mounting plate 1 is fixed to the equipment by screws passing through the mounting holes 2. Then, according to the specifications and length of the small connecting rod, the ordinary lead screw 9 is rotated, causing the sliding frame 10 to move along the guide rod 8 under the action of the thread. After moving to the appropriate position, the small connecting rod is placed on the positioning post 13, pressing the top pressure block 14 to move. The spring 15 is compressed, thus fixing one end of the small connecting rod, so that the other end of the small connecting rod is placed on the sliding frame 10. Next, the double-acting lead screw 11 is rotated, causing the clamping frame 12 to move simultaneously under the action of the thread, clamping and fixing the other end of the small connecting rod. The top pressure blocks 14 are evenly distributed along the positioning post 13. After fixing, according to the machining requirements, the worm gear 4 is rotated by the knob 5. The worm gear 4 and the worm wheel... The meshing motion of the 6 components causes the rotating plate 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the fixed plate 7, guide rod 8, ordinary lead screw 9, sliding frame 10, double lead screw 11, clamping frame 12, and positioning post 13 to rotate. This causes the small connecting rod to rotate. After adjusting to a suitable angle, the small connecting rod is processed by the processing equipment. This allows for the clamping and fixing of connecting rods of different specifications and lengths while adjusting the angle of the connecting rod for processing. There is no need to change the fixture or tools, reducing costs, improving processing efficiency and accuracy, and making it flexible to use. After processing, by rotating the double lead screw 11 in the opposite direction, the clamping frame 12 moves in the opposite direction and disengages from the small connecting rod under the action of the thread. Then, the small connecting rod is removed from the positioning post 13 and disengaged from the top pressure block 14. The spring 15 rebounds, and the top pressure block 14 moves back to its original position. Then, the above operation is repeated to install a new small connecting rod for clamping and fixing before processing.

Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the teachings of this invention, those skilled in the art can make various alterations or modifications to the invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
