Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of casting processing, and in particular to a double-cutter head positioning type tool holder. Background Art

[0002] Using a milling machine and a rotating cutter head to groove the inside of a tubular casting is a commonly used metal processing method. It is particularly suitable for processing annular grooves inside tubular castings. These annular grooves can be used to place limiters, seals or lubricants, etc., and are also one of the important processes in the processing of tubular castings.

[0003] In practical applications, such as when annular grooving is performed on the inner wall of a vehicle steering gear housing, it is usually necessary to continuously open multiple annular grooves. These grooves are usually placed with multiple seals to prevent the lubricating oil inside the steering gear from leaking out and to prevent external dust from entering the steering gear. In the existing processing process, a single tool head tool holder is required to perform separate processing, which results in low processing efficiency and inaccurate control of the spacing between grooves.

[0004] The inventor has conducted research on this issue and has specially developed a double-tool head positioning tool holder to solve the technical problems of low processing efficiency and inaccurate spacing control in the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0025] refer to Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 A double-blade positioning tool holder includes a tool holder body 1 and a second tool holder frame 2. A first tool head 11 is provided at the front end of the tool holder body 1. The first tool head 11 is composed of four tool heads arranged in a circular array. An arc-shaped cutting cavity is provided between the four tool heads, which can improve the discharge efficiency and prevent the cut material from accumulating at the tool head.

[0026] A second cutter head 21 is provided at the front end of the second cutter head holder 2. The second cutter head 21 consists of four cutter heads arranged in a circular array. An arc-shaped cutting cavity is provided between the four cutter heads to improve the material discharge efficiency and prevent the cut materials from accumulating at the cutter heads. Four splines 22 are provided on the outer ring of the second cutter head holder 2. The interior of the cutter seat body 1 is hollow, and four grooves 12 are provided on its inner wall. The splines 22 and the grooves 13 can cooperate, that is, the second cutter head holder 2 can be horizontally displaced at the cutter seat body 1, but the two cannot rotate.

[0027] refer to Figure 4 Figure 5A stop mechanism is provided in the tool holder body 1, and the stop mechanism is configured to limit the displacement of the second tool head holder 2 at the tool holder body 1. The stop mechanism includes a front pull rod 31, a stop block 32, a rear pull rod 33 and a stop block 34. The front pull rod 31, the stop block 32 and the rear pull rod 33 form a center-aligned fixed integrated structure. The inner wall of the tool holder body 1 is provided with an internal thread 13, and the outer wall of the stop block 32 is provided with an external thread 322. The internal thread 13 and the external thread 322 can cooperate. The outer side of the stop block 32 is provided with an internal hexagon 321. By rotating the internal hexagon 321, the stop block 32 can be driven to rotate relative to the tool holder body 1, so that the stop block can rotate under the cooperation of the thread and displace the tool holder body 1.

[0028] There is an empty groove 23 in the central part of the second tool head frame 2, and the front pull rod 31 can pass through the inside of the second tool head frame 2. The other end of the front pull rod 31 is provided with a thread and a nut 311. The front pull rod 31 and the nut 311 can make the second tool head frame 2 close to the stop block 32.

[0029] The outer wall of the stop block 34 is provided with four splines 341, and the splines 341 can cooperate with the groove 12 on the inner wall of the tool holder body 1. A through hole is provided in the middle of the stop block 34, and the rear pull rod 33 can pass through the through hole of the stop block 34. The rear pull rod 33 is provided with a thread and a nut 331. The rear pull rod 33 and the nut 331 can make the stop block 34 close to one side of the stop block 32.

[0030] A hexagonal protrusion 342 is provided on one side of the stop block 34, and the hexagonal protrusion 342 can cooperate with the hexagonal socket 321 of the stop block 32. When the rear pull rod 33 and the nut 331 can press the stop block 34 tightly against one side of the stop block 32, the stop block 32 is locked by the hexagonal protrusion 342, which can prevent the stop block 32 from sliding, making the positioning between the first cutting head 11 and the second cutting head 21 more accurate.

[0031] In the specific application of the double-cutter positioning tool holder of the present scheme, the distance between the first tool head 11 and the second tool head 21 is first set according to the processing requirements, the second tool head frame 2 is placed into the tool holder body 1 from the front end, and then the stop block 32 is rotated by a wrench tool that can cooperate with the hexagon socket 321 of the stop block 32 until the front end of the stop block 32 is in contact with the rear end of the second tool head frame 2, and then the distance between the first tool head 11 and the second tool head 21 is confirmed, and the nut 311 is tightened to close the front end of the stop block 32. Under the action of the pull rod 31, the second cutter head frame 2 is closely attached to the stop block 32, and then the stop block 34 is pushed into the rear end of the cutter seat body 1. At this time, the spline 341 of the stop block 34 cooperates with the groove 12 on the inner wall of the cutter seat body 1 until the hexagonal protrusion 342 on one side of the stop block 34 cooperates with the hexagonal inner corner 321 of the stop block 32. By tightening the nut 331, under the action of the rear pull rod 33, the stop block 34 is closely attached to the stop block 32, and the locking function of the stop mechanism on the second cutter head frame 2 is realized.

[0032] The milling machine clamps the rear end of the tool holder body 1 through a fixture, and under the action of the milling machine, two parallel grooves can be started inside the tubular casting. When necessary, by adjusting and locking the distance between the first tool head 11 and the second tool head 21, two grooves with different distances can be opened inside the tubular casting with different design requirements, which greatly facilitates the operating requirements, greatly reduces the production cost, and improves the process accuracy.

[0033] This scheme has a simple structure, is easy to set up, and has good promotion significance.
