Examples

Please refer to fig. 1 to 8, which are a schematic perspective view, a schematic use state view, an exploded schematic view of a position limiting element, a first cross-sectional view of an IV-IV section in fig. 1, a second cross-sectional view of an IV-IV section in fig. 1, a partially exploded schematic view, a schematic use state view, and a schematic use state view of a positioning mechanism according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a positioning mechanism Z. The positioning mechanism Z includes a base member 1, a magnetic member 2, a plurality of stopper members 3, and a fixing member 4. The positioning mechanism Z of the present invention may be a positioning device for positioning and fixing an object to be measured.

As shown in fig. 1, 2, 4 to 6, the base member 1 of the present invention has a plurality of passages 10, each passage 10 penetrating the body of the base member 1. For example, the base element 1 may be a strip-shaped structure, but not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the base element 1 may also be a solid structure with other geometric shapes. The base element 1 may be made of metal or plastic, but not limited thereto. The plurality of channels 10 of the base element 1 may be arranged in a straight line and at equal intervals, but not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the plurality of channels 10 may be arranged in other arrangements and at unequal intervals on the base element 1. And each channel 10 communicates one side of the base element 1 with the other.

Further, the other surface of the base member 1 is connected to one side of the base member 1 and is recessed inward to form a recess 11, and the recess 11 is communicated with the plurality of channels 10.

Next, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, the magnetic member 2 is located on one surface of the base member 1. For example, the magnetic element 2 can be a general powerful magnet or an electromagnet, but not limited thereto. The magnetic element 2 may be disposed at the bottom of the base element 1. In other embodiments, one surface of the base element 1 may be recessed inward to form a groove 12, and the groove 12 may be used to accommodate the magnetic element 2; the magnetic element 2 can be detachably received in the recess 12 by adhesion, engagement or other fixing methods.

Next, as shown in fig. 1 to 6, each of the position-limiting elements 3 is movably located in the corresponding channel 10, one end of each of the position-limiting elements 3 corresponds to the magnetic element 2, the other end of each of the position-limiting elements 3 is used for abutting against at least one object B, and one side of each of the position-limiting elements 3 is exposed outside the base element 1; one end of each limiting element 3 and the magnetic element 2 are separated from each other by a predetermined distance H through a magnetic repulsion force. Each of the position-limiting elements 3 is, for example, a columnar structure. A part of the body of the plurality of position limiting elements 3 is positioned in the corresponding channel 10, another part of the body of the plurality of position limiting elements 3 is exposed outside the other surface of the base element 1, and one side of a part of each position limiting element 3 positioned in the channel 10 is exposed in the recess 11. Wherein, the shape of the partial body of the limiting element 3 can be conformed with the shape of the channel 10, namely, the shape of the cross section of the limiting element 3 is conformed with the shape of the cross section of the channel 10, and the shape of the cross section of the limiting element 3 and the shape of the cross section of the channel 10 can be circular, polygonal or other geometric shapes.

Further, the body of the position-limiting element 3 may be a multi-section structure with an increasing cross section, for example, as shown in fig. 4, the cross sections of the body of the position-limiting element 3 and the channel 10 are convex, but not limited thereto; therefore, the space for displacement of the limiting element 3 can be limited by the channel 10, and the limiting element 3 is prevented from popping out and separating from the channel 10. However, the body of the position-limiting element 3 may also be a straight strip structure, for example, as shown in fig. 5, the cross section of the body of the position-limiting element 3 and the channel 10 is rectangular; therefore, the limiting element 3 and the channel 10 are designed in such a way that the limiting element 3 can be conveniently installed in the channel 10 or the limiting element 3 can be directly taken out of the channel 10.

Furthermore, one end of each position-limiting element 3 may have a magnetic member 30, and the magnetic member 30 may be a strong magnet or an electromagnet, but not limited thereto. Each magnetic member 30 and the magnetic element 2 are separated from each other by a predetermined distance H through a magnetic repulsive force; that is, each of the position limiting members 3 is spaced apart from the magnetic member 2 by a predetermined distance H by a magnetic repulsive force generated between the magnetic member 30 and the magnetic member 2. The predetermined distance H may be 0mm to 15mm, but is not limited thereto.

It should be noted that each limiting element 3 can be made of plastic, metal or other materials, and one end of each limiting element 3 is provided with a magnetic member 30; in other embodiments, each of the position-limiting elements 3 may be a general strong magnet or an electromagnet, or each of the position-limiting elements 3 may be made of two materials, that is, one end of the position-limiting element 3 is made of a magnetic material, and the main body and the other end of the position-limiting element 3 are made of plastic, metal or other materials.

Next, as shown in fig. 1, fig. 2, and fig. 4 to fig. 6, one end of the fixing element 4 is movably connected to the base element 1, and the other end of the fixing element 4 is detachably connected to the base element 1. For example, the fixing element 4 includes a fixing block 40 and a friction member 41. The fixed block 40 may be an elongated block structure, and the friction member 41 may be a sheet or plate material with a high friction coefficient, such as a nylon sheet, but not limited thereto. The fixing member 4 is located in the recess 11, one end of the fixing block 40 is movably connected to the base member 1, and the other end of the fixing block 40 is detachably connected to the base member 1. The friction member 41 is provided on a face of the fixed block member 40 facing the recess 11; wherein, the fixing block 40 can press one side of the plurality of limiting elements 3 through the friction piece 41. Therefore, the fixing element 4 can be completely received in the recess 11 to form an integrated appearance with the base element 1, which not only facilitates the receiving of the positioning mechanism Z, but also prevents the fixing element 4 from colliding with other objects or being collided by other objects.

Further, as shown in fig. 1, 2 and 6, one of the faces of the recess 11 of the base member 1 corresponds to one of the faces of the base member 1, and one of the faces of the recess 11 protrudes outward to form a protrusion 13. The base element 1 also has a locking element 14, which locking element 14 is detachably connected to the projection 13. Also, one end of the fixing block 40 has a through hole 40a. Therefore, the through hole 40a of the fixing block 40 can be movably sleeved on the protrusion 13 and connected to the protrusion 13 through the locking member 14 to limit one end of the fixing block 40 to the protrusion 13 of the base member 1.

Therefore, one surface of the fixing element 4 is pressed against one side of the plurality of limiting elements 3, and the plurality of limiting elements 3 are in a positioning state. Conversely, when the other end of the fixing member 4 is detached from the base member 1 and the fixing member 4 is away from the plurality of position restricting members 3, the plurality of position restricting members 3 are in a non-positioned state. For example, as shown in fig. 1 to 8, the positioning mechanism Z of the present invention can be used to fix an object B (such as, but not limited to, an object to be measured). Therefore, in the process of fixing an object B (e.g., an object to be measured) by the positioning mechanism Z of the present invention, a user can first detach the other end of the fixing block 40 of the fixing element 4 from the base element 1, so that the friction member 41 of the fixing element 4 is away from the plurality of position-limiting elements 3; at this time, the plurality of stopper elements 3 may be in a movable, floating state.

Next, the user can place the object B on the plurality of spacing elements 3; at this time, the position of the plurality of position-limiting elements 3 is adjusted according to the shape of the object B. Further, when the outer wall of the object B abutting against the plurality of limiting elements 3 is a plane, the other ends of the plurality of limiting elements 3 can be in a horizontal arrangement (as shown in fig. 4 or fig. 5); when the outer wall of the object B against the plurality of limiting elements 3 is a curved surface or an irregular surface, the other ends of the plurality of limiting elements 3 may be in a curved or irregular arrangement (as shown in fig. 8).

Next, the user can connect the other end of the fixing block 40 to the base element 1, so that the friction member 41 presses against one side of the plurality of position-limiting elements 3 to fix the plurality of position-limiting elements 3, and further drive the plurality of position-limiting elements 3 to be in the positioning state.

Then, the user can measure the object B by the detection device D. In the present embodiment, two positioning mechanisms Z are placed on the stage P as an example, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and two or more positioning mechanisms Z may be placed in actual implementation.

Therefore, according to the positioning mechanism Z of the present invention, by using the above technical solution, the object B can be stably fixed and positioned by matching the plurality of limiting elements 3 in the movable and floating state with the shape of the object B. In addition, the movable state or the fixed state of the plurality of limiting elements 3 is adjusted by the fixing element 4, compared with the prior art, the process is simple and easy, and the speed is high.

Further, the fixing element 4 may further include a locking member 42, and the locking member 42 is movably disposed through the other end of the fixing block 40; wherein one end of the locking member 42 is detachably connected to the base member 1 when the fixing block member 40 is in a fixed state. Wherein, when the locking member 42 is far away from the base member 1, the fixing block member 40 is in a non-fixing state.

For example, as shown in fig. 1, 2 and 6, the locking member 42 may be a screw or other type of fastening element. Through the arrangement of the locking member 42, when the user connects the other end of the fixing block 40 to the base element 1, the fixing member 42 can be locked to the base element 1, so that the other end of the fixing block 40 is fixed in the recess 11 and fixed on the base element 1. When the user wants to separate the other end of the fixing block 40 from the base member 1, the locking member 42 is released, so that the other end of the fixing block 40 is separated from the recess 11 and the base member 1 together with the locking member 42.

However, the above-mentioned example is only one possible embodiment and is not intended to limit the present invention.

The magnetic element 2 is located on one side of the base element 1. Each limiting element 3 can be movably positioned in the corresponding channel 10, one end of each limiting element 3 corresponds to the magnetic element 2, the other end of each limiting element 3 is used for abutting against at least one object B, and one side of each limiting element 3 is exposed outside the base element 1; one end of each limiting element 3 and the magnetic element 2 are separated from each other by a predetermined distance H through a magnetic repulsion force. One end of the fixing member 4 is movably connected to the base member 1, and the other end of the fixing member 4 is detachably connected to the base member 1. Wherein, one side of the fixing element 4 is pressed against one side of the plurality of limiting elements 3, and the plurality of limiting elements 3 are in a positioning state "to provide convenience for positioning and fixing the object to be measured.

Furthermore, according to the positioning mechanism Z of the present invention, by the above technical solution, the plurality of channels 10 of the base element 1 are provided with the movable and floating position limiting elements 3, so that the plurality of position limiting elements 3 are adjusted to a proper position according to the shape of the object B; then, the fixing elements 4 are used to adjust the plurality of position-limiting elements 3 to a fixed state, so as to fix and position the object B stably. Therefore, compared with the mode in the prior art, the positioning mechanism Z of the invention not only has simple and easy operation process, but also has quick positioning.
