Fixture for selectably holding dissimilar workpieces

A fixture for selectably supporting dissimilar workpieces, comprising:

• a framework having at least one defined support section;
• at least one workpiece tooling assembly associated with each support section and rotatably coupled to the framework thereof, the at least one workpiece tooling assembly having a plurality of separate tooling mounting faces that are each selectably rotatable to a workpiece support position;
• workpiece support tooling in the form of multiple independent workpiece support elements mounted to and extending from each tooling mounting face of the at least one workpiece tooling assembly;
• and
• a locking assembly that releasably locks each workpiece tooling assembly in a support position associated with a given tooling mounting face thereof;
• wherein the workpiece support elements of the workpiece support tooling mounted to a given tooling mounting face are adapted to cooperatively support a single workpiece, and the workpiece support tooling mounted to each of the tooling mounting faces is adapted to support a different workpiece.

A fixture for selectably supporting dissimilar workpieces in the form of different vehicle bumper fascias, comprising:

• a framework;
• at least one workpiece tooling assembly rotatably coupled to the framework, the at least one workpiece tooling assembly having three separate tooling mounting faces that are each selectably rotatable to and lockable in a workpiece support position;
• a tooling mounting plate affixed to each of the three tooling mounting faces;
• workpiece support tooling in the form of multiple independent workpiece support elements mounted to and extending from each of the tooling mounting plates;
• wherein the workpiece support elements of the workpiece support tooling mounted to a given tooling mounting face are adapted to cooperatively support a single workpiece, and the workpiece support tooling mounted to each of the three tooling mounting faces is adapted to support a different workpiece.
