Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The invention relates to a connecting piece, in particular to a quick-release expansion device. [Background technology]
[0002] With the rapid development of the aerospace industry, the working environment of aerospace products is becoming increasingly harsh. Ordinary threaded connection pairs cannot meet the use requirements of existing aerospace products. High-performance, adjustable and high-matching precision threaded connection pairs are the general trend. In the design of aerospace parts, it is necessary to reduce the radial clearance of the threaded connection pair to achieve adjustable transition fit or interference fit between the bolt product and the substrate. It is difficult for existing bolt connectors to meet the design requirements, and the processing cost of the bolts is relatively expensive, and it is not possible to achieve multiple assembly and disassembly cycles. However, since the radial dimensions of the tension bolts can be adjusted, it will not affect the lubrication and anti-corrosion coating on the surface of the bolts and the substrate, and can be assembled and disassembled multiple times. At the same time, it can avoid the wear between the bolts and the substrate causing gaps in the assembly, so it is widely used in the aerospace field for fastening connections. However, the existing tension bolts are generally complicated to operate, especially for objects to be connected that require hanging beams, and it is impossible to quickly achieve connection and locking through simple operations.

[Specific implementation method]
[0023] The following examples are provided to further explain and supplement the present invention and do not constitute any limitation to the present invention.
[0024] like Figure 1 to Figure 7 As shown, the main points of the quick-release expansion device of the present invention are that an end cover 50 for axial limiting and preventing misoperation is provided on the end of the core rod 10. Only when the end cover 50 is installed in place can the spring sheet 40 be inserted into the end cover 50 to achieve closure; when the end cover 50 is not installed in place, the spring sheet 40 cannot be inserted into the end cover 50; and the end cover 50 is easy and simple to install. Therefore, it is convenient to operate, can be quickly locked, and is also conducive to preventing misoperation. It has strong safety and practicality.
[0025] Specifically, Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, the quick-release expansion device of the present invention includes a core rod 10 , a cam handle 20 , an expansion assembly 30 , a spring sheet 40 and an end cover 50 . The cam handle 20 is rotatably connected to one end of the core rod 10, and the end cover 50 can be connected to the other end of the core rod 10; the expansion component 30 is movably sleeved on the core rod 10, and can expand outward and contract inward under the action of the cam handle 20 to hold the core rod 10; one end of the spring sheet 40 is connected to the cam handle 20, and the other end of the spring sheet 40 is provided with a connecting hole 41; when the end cover 50 is not stuck in place and is in a first position state, the end cover 50 can move along the axial direction of the core rod 10 and detach from the core rod 10, and the spring sheet 40 cannot be inserted into the end cover 50 through its connecting hole 41; when the end cover 50 is stuck in place and is in a second position state, the end cover 50 forms an axial limit connection with the end of the core rod 10 and cannot detach from the core rod 10 along the axial direction of the core rod 10, and the spring sheet 40 can be inserted into the end cover 50 through its connecting hole 41.
[0026] To limit the connection with the end cover 50 and prevent misoperation, Figure 3, Figure 4 As shown, a guide groove 111 and a limit groove 112 are provided on the outer wall of the end of the core rod 10. The guide groove 111 is arranged along the axial direction of the core rod 10, and is formed by the end of the core rod 10 extending along the axial direction. The limit groove 112 is arranged along the circumferential direction of the core rod 10, and is connected with the guide groove 111. The specific shapes of the limit groove 112 and the guide groove 111 are not limited, and they are connected with each other to form a corner groove. In this embodiment, the limit groove 112 is perpendicular to the guide groove 111 to form an L-shaped corner groove. In other embodiments, the limit groove 112 is not necessarily perpendicular to the wire groove.
[0027] The number of the limiting grooves 112 and the guiding grooves 111 can be set as required. In this embodiment, two limiting grooves 112 and two guiding grooves 111 are symmetrically arranged on the outer wall of the core rod 10 .
[0028] Correspondingly, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the end cap 50 is provided with an axial hole 51 which can be inserted into the end of the core rod 10. In order to cooperate with the limiting groove 112 and the guide groove 111, a corresponding positioning portion 52 is provided on the inner wall of the axial hole 51. The positioning portion 52 protrudes from the inner wall of the axial hole 51, can be inserted into the guide groove 111, and can be rotated from the guide groove 111 to the limiting groove 112.
[0029] During installation, if Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the shaft hole 51 corresponds to the end of the core rod 10, the positioning portion 52 corresponds to the limiting groove 112, and then the end cover 50 is inserted into the end of the core rod 10 along the axial direction of the core rod 10, and then the end cover 50 is rotated to make the positioning portion 52 of the end cover 50 slide from the guide groove 111 to the other end of the limiting groove 112, so that the end cover 50 and the core rod 10 form an axial limiting connection, and the end cover 50 cannot move axially relative to the core rod 10 (such as Figure 1 shown).
[0030] When the end cover 50 is inserted into the end of the core rod 10 and the positioning portion 52 thereof is in the guide groove 111 , the end cover 50 is in a snap-in position. At this time, the end cover 50 is in a first position: the end cover 50 can move axially relative to the core rod 10 .
[0031] When the end cover 50 is inserted into the end of the core rod 10 and its positioning portion 52 is in the limiting groove 112 , the end cover 50 is in a locked state, and is now in the second position: the end cover 50 cannot move axially relative to the core rod 10 .
[0032] When the end cover 50 is in the first position, when the cam handle 20 is rotated, the connection hole 41 on the spring sheet 40 cannot always correspond to the end cover 50, so the spring sheet 40 cannot be inserted into the end cover 50 to achieve closure;
[0033] When the end cover 50 is in the second position, when the cam handle 20 is rotated, the connection hole 41 on the spring sheet 40 can correspond to the end cover 50, so that the spring sheet 40 can be inserted into the end cover 50 to achieve closure.
[0034] The shapes of the connecting hole 41 and the end cap 50 can be set as needed, and are not limited to the structures shown in the drawings of this embodiment. For example, the end cap 50 is set to an eccentric structure. When the end cap 50 rotates, the position of its end changes and aligns with or staggers with the connecting hole 41. In this embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the connecting hole 41 is a hexagonal hole, but not a regular hexagon; the end of the end cover 50 is in the shape of a hexagonal nut, but not a regular hexagonal nut; in the first position state, the hexagon of the end cover 50 cannot completely correspond to the hexagon of the connecting hole 41, so the spring piece 40 cannot be inserted into the end cover 50; in the second position state, the hexagon of the end cover 50 completely corresponds to the hexagon of the connecting hole 41, at this time, the spring piece 40 can be inserted into the end cover 50.
[0035] To introduce its structural principle in more detail, in this embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the end cover 50 includes an integrally formed cover plate portion 53 and a connecting portion 54. The outer dimensions of the cover plate portion 53 are larger than the outer dimensions of the connecting portion 54, and a first limiting step 55 is formed at the joint thereof. The cover plate portion 53 is in the shape of a plate, and is used to axially limit the object 100 to be connected, so as to prevent the object 100 to be connected from escaping from the quick-release expansion device. The connecting portion 54 is used to connect with the spring sheet 40. In this embodiment, the connecting portion 54 is in the shape of a hexagonal nut with a non-regular hexagon.
[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, the shaft hole 51 extends from the end of the cover plate portion 53 along the axial direction and passes through the connecting portion 54. The positioning portion 52 is provided on the inner wall of the shaft hole 51. In this embodiment, it is located on the cover plate portion 53, is flush with the end of the cover plate portion 53, and protrudes from the inner wall of the shaft hole 51.
[0037] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, in order to prevent the end cap 50 from being lost, a safety rope 60 is connected to the end cap 50. The safety rope 60 is connected to the end cap 50 in a known manner. The other end of the safety rope 60 is connected to the spring 40, so that the end cap 50 will not fall off when it is loosened, thereby preventing it from being lost.
[0038] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the core rod 10 includes an integrally formed core rod body 12 and a limiting connection column 11. The core rod body 12 is used to connect with the cam handle 20 and the expansion assembly 30. The limiting connection column 11 is used to connect with the end cover 50. The outer dimension of the limiting connection column 11 is smaller than the outer dimension of the core rod body 12, so a second limiting step 13 is formed at the joint thereof. The second limiting step 13 can be used to abut the cover plate portion 53 of the end cover 50.
[0039] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the limiting connection column 11 is cylindrical and coaxial with the core rod body 12. Two guide grooves 111 and two limiting grooves 112 are provided on the outer wall of the limiting connection column 11. In this embodiment, the bottom end of the limiting groove 112 is flush with the second limiting step 13, so that when the end cover 50 is snapped into place and is in the second position state, the cover plate portion 53 of the end cover 50 can abut against the surface of the second limiting step 13.
[0040] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, in order to facilitate the installation of the cam handle 20 and the expansion assembly 30, the core rod body 12 includes an integrally formed cam connecting portion 121, a cylindrical portion 122 and a frustum portion 123.
[0041] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the cam connection part 121 is used to rotatably connect the cam handle 20, and is provided with a shaft hole 1211. The axial direction of the shaft hole 1211 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the core rod body 12. The specific shape of the cam connection part 121 is not limited, and it can be set as needed. In this embodiment, the cam connection part 121 is in the shape of a plate.
[0042] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the cylindrical portion 122 is located between the cam connecting portion 121 and the truncated cone portion 123, and is used to movably sleeve the expansion assembly 30. The diameter of the cylindrical portion 122 can be set as required, and should not be larger than the outer size of the end cover 50, that is, the outer size of the cover plate portion 53, so that the end cover 50 can play the role of axial limiting.
[0043] like Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the surface of the truncated cone portion 123 is a conical surface, which is conducive to mutual extrusion with the outer cone sleeve 32. The diameter of the end of the truncated cone portion 123 away from the cylindrical portion 122 is larger than the diameter of the cylindrical portion 122, so that the end of the core rod body 12 is bulged. In addition, the diameter of the end of the truncated cone portion 123 away from the cylindrical portion 122 should be smaller than the outer size of the cover plate portion 53, so that the end cover 50 can play the role of axial limiting.
[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the cam handle 20 is rotatably connected to the end of the core rod 10. In this embodiment, it is rotatably connected to the cam connecting portion 121 of the core rod 10 through the rotating shaft 70. The cam handle 20 includes an integrally formed cam portion 21 and an extension portion 22. The cam portion 21 is rotatably connected to the cam connecting portion 121 and can rotate around the rotating shaft 70. The circumferential outer wall of the cam portion 21 is at different distances from the rotating shaft 70. The extension portion 22 is used to connect with the spring sheet 40 to connect with the hanging beam.
[0045] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, one end of the spring sheet 40 is connected to the extension portion 22 of the cam handle 20, and a connecting hole 41 is provided on the other end thereof. The end of the spring sheet 40 provided with the connecting hole 41 can be sleeved on the end cover 50 to be closed to achieve the connection of the hanging beam. The material of the spring sheet 40 can be selected as required, such as metal material. The shape of the spring sheet 40 can be set as required. In this embodiment, the spring sheet 40 and the extension portion 22 form a U-shaped structure, which is conducive to the hanging beam. The shape of the connecting hole 41 can be set as required. In this embodiment, it is a hexagonal shape that is not a regular hexagon.
[0046] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the expansion assembly 30 is used for expansion connection by extrusion, and includes an end cone sleeve 31, an outer cone sleeve 32 and an inner cone sleeve 33, which are movably sleeved on the core rod 10 and located between the cam handle 20 and the truncated cone portion 123. The adjacent components of the expansion assembly 30 are matched through conical surfaces. When subjected to extrusion force, the adjacent components are squeezed against each other, so that the inner end cone sleeve 31 and the inner cone sleeve 33 are locked inwardly to hold the core rod 10, while the outer cone sleeve 32 is expanded outwardly to expand the object 100 to be connected, thereby achieving the function of expansion connection.
[0047] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the end cone sleeve 31 is movably sleeved on the core rod 10 and is adjacent to the cam handle 20. In this embodiment, the end cone sleeve 31 is movably sleeved on the cylindrical portion 122. The end cone sleeve 31 includes an integrally formed conical portion 312 and a flange portion 311. The flange portion 311 is formed on the end of the conical portion 312, and the flange portion 311 protrudes from the end of the conical portion 312. The flange portion 311 is used for axial limiting, and it faces the cam handle 20. A first conical surface 3121 is provided on the outer wall of the conical portion 312. The first conical surface 3121 is formed by the outer wall of the end of the conical portion 312 tilting outward to the flange portion 311. In other words, since the end cone sleeve 31 is provided with the first conical surface 3121, the wall of the end of the conical portion 312 close to the flange portion 311 is thick, while the wall of the end away from the flange portion 311 is thin.
[0048] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the outer cone sleeve 32 is movably sleeved on the core rod 10. In this embodiment, it is sleeved on the cylindrical portion 122. There are at least two outer cone sleeves 32, and the specific number can be set according to needs. In this embodiment, there are three outer cone sleeves 32.
[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the outer cone sleeve 32 is provided with a second opening 321 extending in the axial direction and penetrating through both ends thereof; the second opening 321 makes the outer cone sleeve 32 elastic and deformable in the radial direction, and then expand outward. The inner walls at both ends of the outer cone sleeve 32 are respectively provided with a second conical surface 322, and the second conical surface 322 is formed by the inner wall of the end of the outer cone sleeve 32 being inclined inward. In other words, since the second conical surface 322 is provided on the inner wall of the outer cone sleeve 32, the walls of the two ends of the outer cone sleeve 32 are thin, while the wall of the middle part is thick.
[0050] In this embodiment, the inclination angle of the second tapered surface 322 is consistent with the inclination angle of the first tapered surface 3121, so the end tapered sleeve 31 and the outer tapered sleeve 32 can be matched through the first tapered surface 3121 and the second tapered surface 322. When the end tapered sleeve 31 and the outer tapered sleeve 32 are matched, the first tapered surface 3121 of the end tapered sleeve 31 fits with the second tapered surface 322 of the outer tapered sleeve 32, and the end tapered sleeve 31 and the outer tapered sleeve 32 can be squeezed against each other to make the outer tapered sleeve 32 expand outward, and the end tapered sleeve 31 shrinks inward to hold the core rod 10 tightly.
[0051] In addition, the inclination angle of the second conical surface 322 is also consistent with the inclination angle of the conical surface of the truncated cone portion 123, so the outer conical sleeve 32 can be matched with the truncated cone portion 123 through the second conical surface 322. When the outer conical sleeve 32 is matched with the truncated cone portion 123, the second conical surface 322 of the outer conical sleeve 32 fits with the conical surface of the truncated cone portion 123, and the outer conical sleeve 32 squeezes the truncated cone portion 123 to make the outer conical sleeve 32 expand outward.
[0052] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the inner cone sleeve 33 is movably sleeved on the core rod 10. In this embodiment, it is sleeved on the cylindrical portion 122. There is at least one inner cone sleeve 33, which is arranged between two adjacent outer cone sleeves 32. The specific number of the inner cone sleeves 33 can be set as needed. In this embodiment, there are two inner cone sleeves 33.
[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the inner cone sleeve 33 is provided with a third opening 331 extending in the axial direction and penetrating through both ends thereof. The third opening 331 makes the inner cone sleeve 33 elastic and deformable in the radial direction, so as to be tightened inward. The outer walls at both ends of the inner cone sleeve 33 are respectively provided with a third conical surface 332, and the third conical surface 332 is formed by the outer wall of the end of the inner cone sleeve 33 being inclined outward. In other words, since the outer wall of the inner cone sleeve 33 is provided with the third conical surface 332, the inner cone sleeve 33 has thin walls at both ends and thick walls in the middle.
[0054] In this embodiment, the inclination angle of the third tapered surface 332 is consistent with the inclination angle of the second tapered surface 322, so the inner tapered sleeve 33 and the outer tapered sleeve 32 can be matched through the third tapered surface 332 and the second tapered surface 322. When the inner tapered sleeve 33 and the outer tapered sleeve 32 are matched, the third tapered surface 332 of the inner tapered sleeve 33 fits with the second tapered surface 322 of the outer tapered sleeve 32, and the inner tapered sleeve 33 and the outer tapered sleeve 32 can be squeezed against each other to make the outer tapered sleeve 32 expand outward, and the inner tapered sleeve 33 shrinks inward to hold the core pin.
[0055] By this, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the quick-release expansion shape of the present invention is formed: one end of the core rod 10 is rotatably connected to the cam handle 20, and the other end can be connected to the end cover 50; one end of the spring 40 is connected to the cam handle 20, and the other end is provided with a connecting hole 41 and can be inserted into the end cover 50; the expansion assembly 30 composed of the end cone sleeve 31, the outer cone sleeve 32 and the inner cone sleeve 33 is sleeved on the core rod 10, which is located between the cam handle 20 and the end cover 50, and can shrink inward to hold the core rod 10 tightly, and can expand outward to expand the object to be connected 100; the end cover 50 can be connected to the limiting connection column 11 of the core rod 10; the end cover 50 is provided with a positioning portion 52, and the limiting connection column 11 is provided with a guide groove 111 and a limiting groove 111. 12, so that the end cover 50 can be inserted into the limiting groove 112 along the guide groove 111 to realize the axial limiting connection; when the end cover 50 is not inserted into place, it is in the first position: the positioning portion 52 of the end cover 50 is located in the guide groove 111, and the end cover 50 can move axially relative to the core rod 10. At this time, the spring piece 40 cannot be inserted into the end cover 50 through its connecting hole 41; when the end cover 50 is inserted into place, it is in the second position: the positioning portion 52 of the end cover 50 is located in the limiting groove 112, the end cover 50 and the core rod 10 form an axial limiting connection, the end cover 50 cannot move axially relative to the core rod 10, and the spring piece 40 can be inserted into the end cover 50 through its connecting hole 41.
[0056] The quick-release expansion device of the present invention is used to be inserted into the mounting hole of the object 100 to be connected. When in use, first open the quick-release expansion device so that the spring sheet 40 is not inserted into the end cover 50, and remove the end cover 50 from the core rod 10; then align the core rod 10 with the mounting hole and insert it into the object 100 to be connected (such as Figure 6 As shown), and the end cover 50 is installed on the limiting connecting column 11 of the core rod 10, so that the end cover 50 is installed in place and is in the second position state; then the cam handle 20 is rotated to hang the spring 40 on the end cover 50 to close (as shown in FIG. Figure 7 In this process, the cam handle 20 squeezes the end cone sleeve 31, so that the expansion assembly 30 is squeezed and deformed. At this time, the end cone sleeve 31 and the inner cone sleeve 33 are squeezed and locked inward to hold the core rod 10, and the outer cone sleeve 32 expands outward to form an interference fit with the mounting hole of the object to be connected 100 to expand the object to be connected 100; and the flange portion 311 of the end cone sleeve 31 and the cover plate portion 53 of the end cover 50 further limit the object to be connected 100 in the axial direction to prevent the object to be connected 100 from slipping, thereby achieving an axial locking effect and ensuring the connection safety.
[0057] When disassembly is required, the spring sheet 40 is removed from the end cover 50, and then the end cover 50 is removed and the cam handle 20 is rotated (eg Figure 6 As shown), by loosening the expansion assembly 30, the quick-release expansion device can be pulled out from the mounting hole of the object 100 to be connected.
