Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of positioning and fixing fixtures on industrial production lines, and in particular to a manual prototyping fixture for quick product switching. Background Technology

[0002] Electromagnets are frequently used in metal processing, welding, assembly and other production processes to attract and fix products.

[0003] Traditional electromagnet fixtures have significant drawbacks: First, electromagnets are usually rigidly fixed on a thick aluminum base plate. When the position of the electromagnet needs to be adjusted according to the size and shape of the new product, cranes and other lifting equipment must be used to lift, move and fix the heavy electromagnet. The whole process is cumbersome, time-consuming and has safety hazards.

[0004] Secondly, the bracket for fixing the electromagnet lacks flexibility. If the fixing point on the new product does not match the original tooling, it is necessary to re-drill holes on the aluminum substrate, which damages the substrate structure and reduces its versatility and lifespan.

[0005] Finally, the levelness of the electromagnet's adsorption surface needs to be adjusted by adding or removing metal shims, which results in poor adjustment accuracy and slow speed, seriously affecting production rhythm and work efficiency.

[0006] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings, the designer actively researched and innovated in order to create a manual prototyping tool that can quickly switch products, making it more valuable for industrial use. Utility Model Content

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a manual sampling fixture for quick product switching.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A manual prototyping fixture for quick product switching includes a substrate, on which several processing areas are divided, and several positioning units for positioning the product are installed in the processing areas. A matrix of locking holes is set within the processing area; The positioning unit includes a fixed bracket, a positioning block mounting bracket, a positioning block, and a first locking rod; A waist-shaped groove is provided on the top inner side of the fixed bracket.

[0027] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] The first embodiment of this utility model: like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, a manual prototyping fixture for quick product switching in this embodiment mainly includes a substrate 1 and a positioning unit 6.

[0029] The substrate 1 is divided into several processing areas 2, and several locking hole matrices 5 are provided in the processing areas 2. Several positioning units 6 for positioning the product are installed in the processing areas 2.

[0030] Several outer partitions 3 are installed inside the substrate 1 to divide the substrate 1 into several processing areas 2. Several inner partitions 4 are also provided in the processing areas 2. The inner partitions 4 are locked together with the locking hole matrix 5 below by bolts.

[0031] The outer partition 3 divides the substrate 1 into four separate processing areas 2, and the inner partition 4 divides the processing areas 2 into 1 to 3 separate sub-areas.

[0032] Similarly, the positioning unit 6 is detachably locked together with the locking hole matrix 5 below.

[0033] Among them, the aforementioned locking hole matrix 5 is distributed in each processing area, with each processing area containing 8×8=64 locking holes, and a 50mm hole-free area is reserved at the edge of the coverage area.

[0034] The positioning unit 6 includes a fixed bracket 601, a positioning block mounting bracket 604, a positioning block 605, and a first locking rod 606.

[0035] A waist-shaped groove 602 is formed on the inner side of the top of the fixed bracket 601. After the first locking rod 606 is installed in the waist-shaped groove 602, its bottom is connected to the locking hole matrix 5 below, so that the fixed bracket 601 is mounted on the base plate 1. A positioning block mounting bracket 604 is installed on one side of the fixed bracket 601. A positioning block mounting rod 609 that can be adjusted vertically is installed on the positioning block mounting bracket 604. A positioning block 605, which is an electromagnet, is installed on the top of the positioning block mounting rod 609. The electromagnet model can be MFZ1-15 (DC24V), and the attraction force is adjustable from 0 to 30N (via an external 12 to 24V voltage regulator).

[0036] A first locking handle 603 is installed on the top of the first locking rod 606, and the threaded part at the bottom of the first locking rod 606 is locked together with the internal thread of the locking hole matrix 5.

[0037] A bracket base 607 is installed at the bottom of the fixed bracket 601. The bracket base 607 is integrally formed with the fixed bracket and has a rubber anti-slip pad on the bottom. A level is installed on one side of the bracket base 607 to check the levelness of the overall tooling.

[0038] Several through holes 608 for hand-held use are provided on the side of the fixed bracket 601.

[0039] like Figure 3 The positioning block mounting rod 609 is adjusted vertically on the positioning block mounting frame 604 via a threaded connection, and a first positioning block adjustment handle 610 is installed at the bottom of the positioning block mounting rod 609.

[0040] like Figure 4 The positioning block mounting rod 609 moves vertically within the movable hole on the positioning block mounting bracket 604. A second locking rod 612 is installed horizontally within the rod hole on one side of the bottom of the positioning block mounting rod 609. A locking side bracket 613 is installed on the fixed bracket 601 inside the positioning block mounting rod 609. Several side bracket locking holes are evenly distributed vertically on the locking side bracket 613. The threaded part inside the positioning block mounting rod 609 is locked together with the internal thread of the side bracket locking hole. A second positioning block adjusting handle 611 is installed on the outside of the positioning block mounting rod 609.

[0041] A dust removal unit 7 is also installed inside the substrate 1. The dust removal unit 7 includes several air blowing nozzles and air suction nozzles. Specifically, each processing area is provided with 3 air blowing nozzles (φ2mm, air pressure 0.4MPa) and 1 air suction nozzle (φ8mm, negative pressure -0.05MPa), distributed at 90° along the edge of the area. The air path is connected through a φ6mm copper tube inside the substrate, and a quick connector is provided on the outside.

[0042] A wire groove 8 for accommodating wires 9 is also provided on the substrate 1 outside the processing area 2. An openable and closable baffle 10 is also installed on one side of the wire groove 8. The wire groove 8 has a U-shaped structure (50mm wide × 30mm deep) and is distributed along the entire length of the substrate edge (1200mm). A φ5mm wire-passing hole is provided every 100mm at the bottom. The baffle 10 is made of transparent acrylic (3mm thick) and is connected by hinges. It is closed and fixed by a magnetic strip at the end.

[0043] The working process of this embodiment: Step 1: Initial tooling condition check Confirm that substrate 1 is placed horizontally (observe using the level of the positioning unit; the deviation should be ≤0.5°. If the deviation exceeds the tolerance, adjust the shock-absorbing pads at the bottom of the substrate).

[0044] The dust removal unit 7 is connected to an air source (blowing 0.4MPa, suction -0.05MPa), the wire trough 8 stores the electromagnet cable (φ4mm, length 1.5m), and the shield 10 is closed.

[0045] Step 2: Disassemble the original positioning unit Loosen the first locking handle 603 (rotate counterclockwise 2-3 times) to separate the first locking rod 606 from the locking hole matrix 5.

[0046] Hold the through hole 608 of the fixing bracket and move the two positioning units from the processing area 2 to the edge of the substrate for later use.

[0047] If the inner partition 4 needs to be adjusted, loosen its bottom bolts, move it to the preset position and then tighten it again (in this case, the original 200mm sub-area needs to be expanded to 300mm, so one inner partition is removed).

[0048] Step 3: Install the positioning unit Mark the installation positions of the positioning units in processing area 2 according to the product size (the distance between the two positioning units is 150mm).

[0049] Place the fixing bracket 601 at the marked position, align the waist-shaped groove 602 with the lower locking hole, insert the first locking rod 606 and pre-tighten it (rotate the first locking handle clockwise until slight force is applied).

[0050] Observe the level. If it is tilted, fine-tune the position of the fixed bracket until the levelness is ≤0.5°, and then fully tighten the first locking handle.

[0051] Step 4: Adjust the height of the positioning block Rotate the first positioning block adjustment handle 610 (clockwise / counterclockwise) to match the positioning surface height of the positioning block 605 with the thickness of the product (5mm): observe the scale (the mounting rod descends 1.5mm per turn) to initially adjust to the 5mm position.

[0052] Insert the second locking rod 612 and align its end thread with the corresponding side bracket locking hole (the 5th hole, corresponding to a height of 5mm) of the locking side bracket 613. Rotate the second positioning block adjustment handle 611 to lock it, thus completing the double fixation.

[0053] Step 5: Magnetic adjustment and trial positioning Remove the electromagnet cable from the wire slot 8 and connect it to the voltage regulator.

[0054] Place the camera bracket between the two positioning units, ensuring that the edge of the part is in contact with the electromagnet positioning block 605, and then apply power to attract it (confirm that there is no looseness, and the part can only be moved by pulling a force of ≥20N).

[0055] Step 6: Auxiliary operations during processing Turn on dust removal unit 7: During processing (such as grinding, drilling), the blowing nozzle cleans the debris on the surface of the parts, and the suction nozzle sucks away the suspended dust (keeping the positioning surface clean to avoid affecting the adsorption force).

[0056] If a temporary adjustment is needed, repeat step 4 for fine-tuning after powering off; there is no need to disassemble the positioning unit.

[0057] Step 7: Replacement complete and reset After processing is completed, power is turned off, the parts are removed, the dust removal unit is turned off, the electromagnet cable is put back into the wire trough 8 and the shielding plate 10 is closed.

[0058] If long-term storage is required, the positioning unit can be loosened and the units placed together to avoid occupying the processing area.
