Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of special vehicle assembly, and in particular relates to special vehicle press-assembly equipment and a press-assembly method capable of quickly switching auxiliary tooling. Background Art

[0002] In order to improve the efficiency of the tracks and reduce the noise and impact generated by the tracks during vehicle driving, a regular polygonal hard rubber ring with the same number of teeth is installed on the driving wheel hub of special vehicles. After the tracks and the driving wheel are engaged, the track shoe is laid on a plane of the rubber ring, thereby achieving smooth transmission and reducing impact and noise. This technology is widely used in engineering machinery fields such as energy, heavy industry, and underground operations.

[0003] The rubber ring is a polygonal hard rubber ring and a connecting ring formed in one piece. When it has an interference fit with the driving wheel hub, friction is used to prevent the rubber ring from rotating. When press-fitting the rubber ring, its installation direction and angle must be ensured. Due to its large interference fit, a press machine is required for press-fitting. It is non-removable and must be pressed successfully once.

[0004] When the rubber ring is press-fitted, since the metal part that fits it has no chamfer, the inner ring size of the rubber ring is smaller than the outer diameter of the metal part, which is a tight fit. In addition, the rubber ring itself is relatively soft. When it is directly fitted manually, many positions cannot be directly inserted. When the press presses down, the rubber ring will be sheared, resulting in the rubber ring not only not being installed in place, but also being damaged or even cut off. In addition, manual assembly is time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient.

[0005] The current press-fitting mainly uses a single press-fitting with special tooling. The whole process of press-fitting requires human intervention, which is labor-intensive and slow. The specific steps of press-fitting are as follows: hang the driving wheel on the press-fitting table and fix it, put the driving wheel rubber ring on it, and then press the pressure plate welding assembly; after adjusting the position, install the positioning pin, and then use the scale line to make appropriate fine adjustments before press-fitting; after the press-fitting is completed, use the scale line to check.

[0006] The principle of using existing press fittings is as follows: Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it is composed of a pressure plate welding assembly 12 and a positioning pin 13. The pressure plate welding assembly 12 is a main component, and its structure is as follows Figure 5 and 6As shown, it is composed of a pressure plate 1201 and a positioning block 1202, and the material can be selected from alloy structural steel or high-quality carbon steel. Among them, the outer dimensions of the pressure plate 1201 are roughly the same as those of the driving wheel rubber ring, and are evenly distributed with positioning holes 1203 with the same position and size as the process holes on the driving wheel 14 and the rubber ring 15. By passing the positioning pin 13 through the positioning hole 1203, the rubber ring 15 and the driving wheel 14, the matching accuracy between the driving wheel 14 and the driving wheel rubber ring 15 is ensured. The specific size of the pressure plate 1201 can be adjusted according to the driving wheel 14, the driving wheel rubber ring 15 or other structural dimensions. The positioning block 1202 is located in the bottom groove of the pressure plate 1201 and is connected by welding, such as Figure 7 and 8 As shown, the circumferential matching angle is mainly quantified and inspected during press-fitting through the scale line 120201, and the front and back side error prevention of the driving wheel rubber ring 4 is realized through the protrusion below the pressure plate 1201. The positioning hole 1203 can be designed in shape and precision according to specific size requirements, and the press-fitting precision is ensured and inspected by cooperating with the scale line 120201 on the positioning block 1202. The main disadvantage of the existing press-fitting tooling is that the press-fitting process requires human intervention throughout, which is labor-intensive and slow.

[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to design a special vehicle pressing equipment and pressing method that can quickly switch auxiliary tooling, so that the assembly of the rubber ring is more convenient and quick, effectively improve the installation efficiency, and reduce the difficulty of installing the rubber ring and the labor intensity of manual work. Summary of the invention
