Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of spinning, and in particular to a spinning positioning device and a processing method for a thin-walled workpiece with a large aspect ratio. Background Art
[0002] High-power spinning is recognized as one of the most effective processing methods for manufacturing thin-walled shell parts. The precision of spun parts is not inferior to that of cutting processing, and the material utilization rate and mechanical properties are better than those of machining. Therefore, spinning forming technology is increasingly used in industries such as aviation, aerospace, and weapons industry.
[0003] A large aspect ratio refers to a workpiece with a relatively long length relative to its diameter, such as a slender shaft, a long tube, etc. This type of workpiece is usually more prone to bending and deformation during processing, and requires special clamping and support measures. When spinning, workpieces with a large aspect ratio are relatively long and have poor rigidity, and are easily deformed and displaced by external forces. If the fixture used to fix the workpiece is not stable enough or the clamping force is insufficient, the workpiece may move axially during the spinning process. After one end of the core mold used to process the workpiece is fixed, the other end will tilt downward due to its long length, resulting in runout errors, making subsequent positioning more difficult. Faced with the current processing of ultra-high-strength steel thin-walled shells with a large aspect ratio, choosing a processing technology with high processing quality, low production cost, and high efficiency has become a major problem in the processing of ultra-high-strength steel ultra-thin-walled shells. Summary of the invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that when a workpiece with a large aspect ratio is subjected to spinning processing, the workpiece is difficult to clamp and centering errors are prone to occur, resulting in low processing efficiency.

[0005] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:

The schematic implementation modes and descriptions of the present invention are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. It should be noted that the present invention is already in the actual development and use stage.
[0061] Example 1
[0062] like Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, this embodiment provides a positioning device for spinning processing of thin-walled workpieces with a large aspect ratio, comprising:
[0063] A spinning device, wherein a main shaft 11 and a spinning mechanism are arranged on the spinning device, the main shaft 11 and the spinning mechanism are arranged facing each other, a core mold 12 is fixedly connected to the end surface of the main shaft 11, and the spinning mechanism is slidably connected to the spinning device;
[0064] A clamping mechanism, the clamping mechanism is arranged on the end surface of the main shaft 11 close to the core mold 12;
[0065] An adjusting mechanism, wherein the adjusting mechanism is arranged on a side away from the main shaft 11;
[0066] The clamping mechanism is used to clamp and fix the core mold 12 and the blank 4 , the diameter of the clamping mechanism is adjustable, and the adjusting mechanism is used to support and adjust the height of the core mold 12 .
[0067] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the spinning mechanism includes a plurality of spinning wheels 5 and a spinning wheel frame 14. The spinning wheel frame 14 is used to clamp the limited spinning wheel 5. The spinning wheel 5 is used to contact the outer peripheral wall of the blank 4. The plurality of spinning wheels 5 are arranged in a surrounding array along the core mold 12. The surrounding centers of the plurality of core molds 12 are coaxially arranged with the central axis of the core mold 12. The cross-sectional shape of the spinning wheel 5 is arc-shaped, the cross-sectional shape of the spinning wheel 5 is V-shaped, and the number of the spinning wheels 5 is one, two or three.
[0068] like Figures 4 to 6As shown, the clamping mechanism includes a plurality of chucks 21, a clamping plate 26, a connecting rod 25, a first transmission member 22 and a second transmission member 23. The chuck 21 is used for coaxial clamping and fixing on the main shaft 11. The plurality of clamping plates 26 are distributed in a circular array around the main shaft 11. The clamping plates 26 are arc-shaped. The connecting rod 25 is connected to the inner concave surface of the clamping plate 26. A plurality of slide grooves are provided on the end surface of the chuck 21 on the side close to the core mold 12. The connecting rod 25 is slidably connected in the slide grooves. The first transmission member 22 and the second transmission member 23 are both located on the side of the chuck 21 close to the core mold 12. A through hole for the core mold 12 to pass through is provided in the middle of the first transmission member 22 and the chuck 21. The first transmission member 22 is also provided with a through hole for the core mold 12 to pass through. A plurality of arc-shaped slots 24 are provided, and a plurality of arc-shaped slots 24 are provided around the through hole. A positioning shaft 27 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 25 away from the clamping plate 26. The positioning shaft 27 is slidably connected in the arc-shaped slot 24. The first transmission member 22 and the second transmission member 23 are transmission-connected. The first transmission member 22 rotates to cause the positioning shaft 27 to slide along the arc-shaped slot 24, driving the connecting rod 25 to slide along the slide groove, so that the inner diameter between the clamping plate 26 and the center of the chuck 21 becomes larger or smaller. The spinning equipment also includes a supporting mechanism, which is arranged opposite to the main shaft 11. A top shaft 13 for supporting the tail of the blank 4 is arranged on the supporting mechanism, and the top shaft 13 is connected to the blank 4 through the tail top plate.
[0069] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first transmission member 22 and the second transmission member 23 are two gears connected to each other, a driving member is provided on the chuck 21, and the driving member is connected to the second transmission member 23, a fixed block is provided on one side of the second transmission member 23, a check claw is provided on the fixed block, and the check claw is located between two adjacent gear teeth of the second transmission member 23.
[0070] Specifically, before the spinning process, a cylindrical blank 4 to be processed is selected, and the length, diameter and other parameters of the blank 4 are measured. After completion, the blank 4 is placed on the core mold 12. A clamping mechanism has been pre-installed on the main shaft 11 of the spinning equipment, and the clamping mechanism is used to fix the blank 4 and the core mold 12.
[0071] Regarding the clamping process: the end of the clamping mechanism facing the main shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the main shaft 11, and the fixing method can be bolt fixing, clamping fixing, etc. After the blank 4 is set, the driving member is started, and the driving member drives the second transmission member 23 to rotate. The second transmission member 23 drives the first transmission member 22 to rotate under the action of the driving member. When the first transmission member 22 rotates, the arc groove 24 rotates synchronously. The arc surface of the arc groove 24 changes its position during the rotation process, but the positioning shaft 27 slidably connected to the arc groove 24 is connected at the same time. The connecting rod 25 is limited in the slide groove. Therefore, when the arc-shaped slot 24 rotates and moves, the arc surface of the arc-shaped slot 24 pushes the positioning shaft 27. The positioning shaft 27 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 25, driving the connecting rod 25 to slide outward along the slide groove, and finally the clamping plate 26 moves toward the outside, so that the distance between the clamping plate 26 and the core mold 12 is increased. At this time, the blank 4 can be moved synchronously toward the direction of the clamping plate 26, and finally the driving part is controlled to reverse, so that the clamping plate 26 is retracted and fixed on the blank 4, so as to achieve circumferential fixation of the blank 4.
[0072] It should be noted that the driving member mentioned above can be the motor in the chuck 21 or the power supply of the spinning equipment. The chuck 21 is also provided with a fixed shaft for fixing and limiting the second transmission member 23. The first transmission member 22 can be rotatably connected to the end face of the chuck 21 through a rotating shaft. The chuck 21 is also provided with a fixed block, which is connected to the non-return claw through an elastic sheet 323. When the clamping plate 26 is expanded, the non-return claw moves along the second transmission member 23 and away from the ratchet mechanism. When the clamping plate 26 needs to be retracted, the non-return claw is pushed away. After the clamping is completed, the non-return claw can be released to limit the second transmission member 23 to prevent rotation.
[0073] Screw holes are provided on the side walls of the clamping plate 26 and the chuck 21. After the blank 4 is clamped, bolts can be inserted through the screw holes to fix the clamping plate 26 and the chuck 21. Preferably, after the clamping plate 26 is expanded a certain distance, there is a certain distance between it and the chuck 21. A pad can be added between the clamping plate 26 and the chuck 21 for transition, so that the bolts can connect the support plate and the chuck 21.
[0074] After the clamping mechanism completes clamping, the spinning mechanism is moved to one side of the main shaft 11. The spinning equipment includes a base, on which a screw is arranged, and a rotating wheel frame 14 is slidably connected to the base through a screw. The base is moved to the tail end of the blank 4. A supporting mechanism is also provided on the spinning equipment, and the supporting mechanism is also slidably connected to the base through a screw. A top shaft 13 is provided on the supporting mechanism, and a tail top plate that can be sleeved on the tail end of the blank 4 is provided on the top shaft 13. The top shaft 13 is used to apply a pre-tightening force to the blank 4. After the blank 4 is clamped and installed, a tail top plate is sleeved on the tail of the blank 4, and the top shaft 13 is controlled to support the tail top plate and apply a pre-tightening force.
[0075] Regarding the spinning process: When the spinning process is performed, the movement of the spinning wheel frame 14 can be controlled by rotating the screw rod, so that the spinning wheel 5 can feed along the blank 4. After repeated multiple cycles of feeding, the blank 4 is completed.
[0076] Example 2
[0077] like Figures 7 to 11 As shown, the adjustment mechanism includes a support platform 3, a support frame is provided on the bottom surface of the support platform 3, a receiving groove is provided downward on the top surface of the support platform 3, a through groove is penetrated on both sides of the support platform 3 along the length direction, and wing plates 31 are provided on both sides of the through groove along the width direction of the support platform 3, the wing plate 31 and the support platform 3 are integrally formed, a guide groove is provided on the wing plate 31, a roller shaft 32 is slidably connected between two adjacent guide grooves, a guide rail is rotatably connected to the middle part of the roller shaft 32, a load-bearing plate 35 is slidably connected in the receiving groove, and the ends of the load-bearing plate 35 respectively contact the ends of adjacent roller shafts 32, a limit plate 33 is provided at the bottom of the support platform 3, the length of the limit plate 33 is greater than the length of the through groove, a transition plate connected to the end of the roller shaft 32 is provided on the top surface of the limit plate 33, a bracket is also provided on the bottom surface of the support platform 3, and a hydraulic drive component is provided at the bottom of the limit plate 33.
[0078] like Figures 7 to 11 As shown, the two guide rails are a straight rail 341 and an inclined rail 342. The straight rail 341 is perpendicular to the support platform 3 when working, and the angle between the inclined rail 342 and the width direction of the support platform 3 is 45° when working. The surfaces of the straight rail 341 and the inclined rail 342 facing each other are provided with track grooves, and a fixed plate 121 is provided at one end of the core mold 12 close to the support platform 3. The thickness of the fixed plate 121 is less than the groove width of the track groove, and the inner surfaces of the two track grooves are provided with elastic pads.
[0079] like Figure 8 As shown, an annular groove is also provided on the outer peripheral wall of the chuck 21, and a support platform is also provided on the base of the spinning equipment. A positioning column is arranged on the support platform. The top of the positioning column is a curved surface that contacts the annular groove. The positioning column is used to support the clamping mechanism. The positioning column is also vertically connected to a centering rod. The roller shaft 32 is penetrated by a centering hole along the length direction toward the support platform 3, and the centering rod is used to connect with the centering hole.
[0080] Specifically, after one end of the core mold 12 is fixed close to the clamping mechanism, because the core mold 12 is a shaft-like workpiece with a large aspect ratio and is too long, the other end of the core mold 12 will fall, making it impossible for the axis of the core mold 12 to remain horizontal. At this time, before installing the clamping mechanism, the support platform 3 can be placed on one side of the fixed disk 121 of the core mold 12, and the linear rail 341 and the inclined rail 342 can be rotated to one side of the support platform 3 respectively. After the clamping mechanism is installed, the positioning column is inserted into the annular groove of the chuck 21. At this time, the position of the support platform 3 can be adjusted to make the centering hole of the roller shaft 32 coaxial with the centering rod, and the centering rod is passed through the centering hole to achieve pre-coaxial positioning of the core mold 12. It should be noted that the centers of several centering rods should be located on the same circumference, and the center of the circumference should be coaxial with the center of the chuck. This setting can maximize the bearing capacity of the centering rod, and reduce most of the errors during subsequent leveling to keep the centering rod horizontal.
[0081] After that, after the core mold 12 is installed close to one end of the clamping mechanism, one end of the fixed plate 121 of the core mold 12 falls and presses down the load-bearing plate 35. The load-bearing plate 35 is pressed downward by the force, driving the roller 32 and the limit plate 33 to move downward. The downward movement of the limit plate 33 is the runout error of the core mold 12. Preferably, a position detector can be set at the bottom of the support platform 3 to measure the deviation of the core mold 12 in real time. Under normal circumstances, the runout error of the core mold 12 is within 0.05 mm. Preferably, a plurality of elastic sleeves can be set in the accommodating groove of the support platform 3 or on the surface of the roller 32 to achieve buffering of the load-bearing plate 35.
[0082] Finally, the linear rail 341 and the inclined rail 342 are reset, and the track grooves of the two guide rails are inserted into the two sides of the fixed plate 121, and then the hydraulic drive at the bottom of the supporting platform 3 is started to control the two limit plates 33 to rise. After the limit plates 33 rise, the roller shaft 32, the load-bearing plate 35, the guide rails and the fixed plate 121 rise synchronously. The guide rails are used to limit the fixed plate 121, and the linear rail 341 is used to make the fixed plate 121 rise upward along its track groove, and the inclined rail 342 is used to prevent the radial direction of the fixed plate 121 from being tilted by the rising thrust. The linear rail 341 and the inclined rail 342 are limited synchronously. Positioning has been achieved through the centering hole and the centering rod. Therefore, when the limit plate 33 rises to fit with the support platform 3, it means that the core mold 12 is installed, avoiding jumping errors caused by continued rising. In addition, after the fixed disk 121 tilts downward, the end face of the fixed disk 121 is not parallel to the support platform 3, and the angle between the inclined rail 342 and the width direction of the support platform 3 is 45°. The track groove of the inclined rail 342 can provide a similar inclined space for the fixed disk 121, which is convenient for rising and resetting. The elastic pads in the two track grooves can change the diameter of the track groove according to the current rising position of the fixed disk 121 to avoid jamming during rising.
[0083] After the adjustment is completed, the support mechanism is controlled to move to the fixed disk 121, and the top shaft 13 is inserted into the rotating hole of the fixed disk 121 to realize the positioning of the core mold 12. Finally, since the centering rod is respectively located at the bottom of the clamping mechanism and the adjustment mechanism, the support platform 3 does not need to be disassembled. The positioning column at the bottom of the chuck 21 can be used to support the fixed chuck 21. During the subsequent spinning process, the centering rod can provide a certain supporting force to reduce the vibration of the core mold 12 during the spinning process. It should be noted that the spinning equipment is provided with a cooling pipe for spraying coolant, and the nozzle of the cooling pipe faces the annular groove of the chuck 21 to reduce the heat generated by the friction between the chuck 21 and the positioning column.
