Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aircraft assembly, and in particular relates to a cam bushing removal tool for a double-ear type part used in an aircraft component assembly process and a use method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the aircraft structure, there are many double-ear joint parts in the landing gear compartment, and the bushing and the double-ear joint are interference fit. Due to being in the external environment of flight for a long time, the cam bushing in the joint is severely rusted and worn. During the removal of the bushing, the lack of special tools increases the difficulty of replacing the bushing. Operators usually use one person to assist in holding the parts, and the other person uses a hammer and a pin to knock out the bushing. This operation is not only easy to injure the operator, but also causes great damage to the parts. When the cam bushing boss is on the outside of the double-ear part, the bushing cannot be knocked out, and it can only be removed by destroying the bushing through operations such as electrical cutting, which is inefficient. Summary of the invention
[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a cam bushing removal tool and a method of use for double-ear parts, aiming to provide a removal method tool that is simple, reliable, and has low manufacturing cost, so as to solve the problems of difficult bushing disassembly and low efficiency in existing production conditions.
[0004] The patent of the present invention is realized through the following technical scheme: a cam bushing removal tool for double-ear parts, including a rotating handle, a main shaft, a fixed handle, and a top piece. The main shaft is a four-diameter stepped shaft, which is the first diameter section of the main shaft, the second diameter section of the main shaft, the third diameter section of the main shaft, and the fourth diameter section of the main shaft from top to bottom, and the diameters decrease successively. A through hole is provided in the center of the first diameter section of the main shaft, and the diameter of the through hole is the same as the diameter of the rotating handle, and the rotating handle is inserted therethrough. The diameter of the second diameter section of the main shaft is smaller than the inner diameter of the cam bushing, and an external thread matching the internal thread of the fixed handle is provided on the second diameter section. The diameter of the third diameter section of the main shaft is smaller than the second diameter section of the main shaft, and the fourth diameter section of the main shaft is provided with an external thread. There is a blind hole in the top of the top piece, and a thread is provided in the blind hole, which matches the fourth diameter section of the main shaft where the external thread is located.
[0005] Furthermore, the top piece is a stepped shaft, the front section has a diameter that is the same as the inner diameter of the cam bushing, and the rear section is provided with a cam bushing stop step, the diameter of which is larger than the inner diameter of the cam bushing.
[0006] Furthermore, the fixed handle is welded from a rectangular metal and a cylindrical metal, and the center of the cylindrical metal disk has a through hole, the diameter of the through hole is larger than the third diameter section of the main shaft and is the same as the fourth direct diameter section of the main shaft, and the inner wall of the through hole is provided with a thread, which cooperates with the second diameter section of the main shaft where the external thread is located to form a rotational relationship, and a step protrusion is provided around the cylindrical metal disk.
[0007] The method of removing two cam bushings in a double-ear part using a cam bushing removal tool includes the following steps:

[0009] 2. Insert the front section of the ejector into the inner diameter of the first cam bushing in the double-eared part, and the ejector stopper is close to the edge of the first cam bushing. At the same time, the operator holds the fixed handle and places it between the two cam bushings of the double-eared part, with the raised step of the fixed handle facing the second cam bushing, so that the second cam bushing can be avoided during the tightening process;
[0010] 3. Hold the spindle with your other hand, insert the spindle from the outside of the second cam bushing, and pass the third diameter section of the spindle out of the fixed handle;
[0011] 4. Hold the fixed handle with one hand and keep it still. Use the other hand to continuously rotate the handle to drive the spindle to rotate, so that the fixed handle moves upward until the boss around the fixed handle abuts against the double-ear part, and at the same time, the fourth diameter section of the spindle and the top piece are connected to each other;
[0012] 5 When the boss around the fixed handle abuts against the double-eared part, the handle is rotated continuously, and the main shaft will drive the top piece to move toward the first cam bushing, and the first cam bushing will be disengaged from the double-eared part under the stop action of the stop step of the top piece;
[0013] 6 After the first cam bushing is taken out, remove the top piece from the main shaft, insert the front section of the top piece into the inner diameter of the second cam bushing in the binaural part, and the top piece stopper is close to the edge of the second cam bushing. At the same time, the operator holds the fixed handle and places it between the two cam bushings of the binaural part, with the raised step of the fixed handle facing the first cam bushing position in the binaural part;
[0014] 7 Hold the spindle with your other hand, insert the spindle from the other end of the double-ear part, and pass the third diameter section of the spindle out of the fixed handle;
[0015] 8. Hold the fixed handle with one hand and keep it still. Use the other hand to continuously rotate the handle to drive the spindle to rotate, so that the fixed handle moves upward until the boss around the fixed handle abuts against the double-ear part, and at the same time, the fourth diameter section of the spindle and the top piece are connected to each other;
[0016] 9 When the boss around the fixed handle is against the double-eared part, the handle is rotated continuously, and the main shaft will drive the top piece to move toward the second cam bushing, and the second cam bushing will be disengaged from the double-eared part under the stop action of the top piece stop step.
[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0018] 1) When removing the cam bushing of a double-eared part, first pass the spindle through the bushing and tighten the handle, install the top piece on the front end of the spindle, and hold the tightening handle. When the top piece contacts the bushing, continue to turn the handle to drive the spindle to feed, so that the bushing can be separated from the part hole, and the bushing can be quickly removed.
[0019] 2) The use of the removal tool can reduce the difficulty of replacing the bushing for operators and improve work efficiency.
[0020] 3) The use of the removal tool not only reduces the labor intensity of the operator, but also has a simple structure, fast and convenient operation, small required operating space, only one person is needed for the entire operation, and the operation process is safe and reliable, which can ensure the product quality after the bushing is removed.
