[0002] A waveguide is a hollow, smooth metal conduit. It is an essential component for electromagnetic wave transmission in the information and communications field. The smooth interior of a waveguide is required to minimize electromagnetic wave transmission losses.

[0003] Existing waveguides are usually copper alloy waveguides and aluminum alloy waveguides, which are usually processed by die forming, extrusion, machining, wire cutting and other methods.

[0004] Magnesium-lithium alloy is one-third lighter than aluminum alloy and has better electromagnetic shielding properties than copper alloy and aluminum alloy. Using magnesium-lithium alloy to prepare waveguide tubes can produce a waveguide tube with light weight and excellent electromagnetic shielding properties. However, due to the relatively soft texture of magnesium-lithium alloy, the waveguide tube blank obtained by extrusion molding will have vertical lines or marks, which can easily cause the smoothness, flatness and straightness of the inner hole surface of the waveguide tube to fail to meet the standards, resulting in a low yield.

[0005] The inner hole space of the waveguide is small, and conventional surface processing tools are difficult to enter, making processing difficult and inefficient, especially at the corners of the inner hole of the waveguide. Utility Model Content

[0030] The blade 2-3 is a PCD blade, i.e., a polycrystalline diamond blade, which is fixed to the blade body 2-2 by welding.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the inclined blade surface is divided into a downwardly inclined middle section inclined blade surface 2-5 and a rear section inclined blade surface 2-6 behind the front section horizontal blade surface 2-4, the inclination angle B of the rear section inclined blade surface 2-6 is greater than or equal to the inclination angle A of the middle section inclined blade surface 2-5, the front and rear width H of the front section horizontal blade surface 2-4 is 0.2~0.3mm, and the thickness of the blade 2-3 is greater than the front and rear width H of the horizontal blade surface 2-4.

[0032] The inclination angle A of the middle section inclined blade surface 2-5 is 2 to 3 degrees, and the inclination angle B of the rear section inclined blade surface 2-6 is 7 to 45 degrees.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, the specific structure of the planer 2 installed on the arbor 1 is: the arbor 1 has a knife groove 3, the planer 2 is embedded in the knife groove 3, and is fixed by a fixing block 4 and a locking screw 5, the fixing block 4 is also embedded in the knife groove 3, and the fixing block 4 is located on the rear side of the planer 2, the fixing block 4 has a slot 6 running through from top to bottom, the bottom of the knife groove 3 has a threaded hole 7, the locking screw 5 passes through the slot 6 and is screwed into the threaded hole 7, applying a downward locking force to the fixing block 4, the rear side of the fixing block 4 has a first inclined surface inclined from top to bottom and forward, the rear side surface of the knife groove 3 has a second inclined surface matching the first inclined surface, which is used to push the fixing block 4 to move to the side of the planer 2 under the locking force of the locking screw 5, thereby clamping and fixing the planer 2.

[0034] Of course, it can also be that: the front side of the fixing block 4 has a first inclined surface tilted backward from top to bottom, and the rear side surface of the planer 2 has a second inclined surface matching the first inclined surface, which is used to push the planer 2 toward the front side surface of the knife groove 3 under the locking force of the locking screw 5, thereby clamping and fixing the planer 2.

[0035] like Figures 5-10 As shown, a waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing processing device includes a frame, the above-mentioned waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing tool 12, a tool clamping device and a workpiece clamping device, the tool clamping device and the workpiece clamping device are installed on the frame, the rear end of the tool rod 1 of the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 is clamped on the tool clamping device, and the axis of the tool rod 1 is taken as the X direction. The workpiece clamping device has a clamping mechanism for clamping the waveguide tube 11 along the X direction. The workpiece clamping device has three feeding directions of X, Y, and Z, and is used to drive the waveguide tube 11 to feed in the three feeding directions of X, Y, and Z.

[0036] A specially manufactured machine can be used to clamp the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 to form the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing processing device of this embodiment, or a conventional multi-axis CNC machine tool can be used, and then equipped with a clamping mechanism of the waveguide tube 11 and the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 to form the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing processing device of this embodiment.

[0037] The following describes the process of planing the rectangular inner hole of a waveguide tube by taking an example of using a conventional multi-axis CNC machine tool and then matching it with a clamping mechanism of the waveguide tube 11 to form the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing processing device of this embodiment.

[0038] like Figure 5 As shown, the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 is clamped on the spindle chuck 8 of the multi-axis CNC machine tool through its rear end. The clamping mechanism is installed on the side of the turret 9 of the multi-axis CNC machine tool. The waveguide tube 11 is clamped on the turret 9 through the clamping mechanism. The spindle chuck 8 of the multi-axis CNC machine tool is the tool clamping device, and the workpiece clamping device is the turret 9 equipped with the clamping mechanism.

[0039] like Figure 6 and 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the tool rod 1 is rectangular. In order to facilitate the clamping of the spindle chuck 8, a circular open sleeve 10 is put on the rear end of the tool rod 1. The opening of the circular open sleeve 10 allows the circular open sleeve 10 to clamp the tool rod 1 inserted into its rectangular inner hole under the clamping force of the spindle chuck 8, or the tool rod 1 is rectangular as a whole, but the rear end is circular, which is convenient for clamping the spindle chuck 8.

[0040] The planing process of the rectangular inner hole of the waveguide is as follows:

[0041] 1. Complete the clamping of the waveguide tube 11 and the waveguide rectangular inner hole planing tool 12, and the blade 2-1 of the planer 2 is parallel to the inner hole surface to be processed;

[0042] 2. The turret 9 drives the waveguide 11 to move to the initial position;

[0043] 3. If Figure 8 and 9 As shown, the turret 9 drives the waveguide tube 11 to move horizontally backward in the X direction, so that the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 is inserted into the inner hole of the waveguide tube 11 from one side of the inner hole, such as the left side, and the inner hole surface of the waveguide tube 11 is planed from the left side. When the planer 2 passes through the front end of the waveguide tube 11, one planing is completed, as shown in FIG. Figure 10 As shown, in Figures 8-10 In the figure, the turret 9 and the spindle chuck 8 are omitted;

[0044] 4. Retract the waveguide rectangular inner hole planing tool 12: The turret 9 drives the waveguide 11 upward in the Y direction to disengage the planer 2, and then the turret 9 drives the waveguide 11 forward in the X direction to pull the waveguide rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 out of the inner hole of the waveguide 11, and the planer 2 passes through the rear end of the waveguide 11;

[0045] 5. The turret 9 drives the waveguide tube 11 downward in the Y direction, so that the planer 2 is reset to the processing position in the Y direction. Then, the turret 9 drives the waveguide tube 11 to the left in the Z direction, so that the planer 2 moves longitudinally to the right relative to the inner hole surface. Then, the turret 9 drives the waveguide tube 11 to move horizontally backward in the X direction, so that the waveguide rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 is inserted into the inner hole of the waveguide tube 11. When the planer 2 passes through the front end of the waveguide tube 11, the second planing is completed. The second planing area overlaps with the first planing area.

[0046] 6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until the planer 2 moves longitudinally to the rightmost side of the inner hole surface. After this planing, the inner hole surface is planed from left to right to achieve the required smoothness, flatness, and straightness of the inner hole surface.

[0047] 7. Loosen the waveguide tube 11 and rotate it 90 degrees. Then clamp the waveguide tube 11 again and repeat steps 3 to 6 to complete the planing of another inner hole surface of the inner hole of the waveguide tube 11. Repeat the above steps until all inner hole surfaces are planed.

[0048] Of course, it can also be: the waveguide tube 11 is stationary, and the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 moves to perform planing processing. The tool clamping device has three feeding directions of X, Y, and Z, which is used to drive the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 to feed in the three feeding directions of X, Y, and Z. For example, the tool clamping device is a turret 9 of a multi-axis CNC machine tool with a matching clamping mechanism, the waveguide tube rectangular inner hole planing tool 12 is clamped on the turret 9, and the workpiece clamping device is a spindle chuck 8 of a multi-axis CNC machine tool with a matching clamping mechanism.
