[0001] This invention relates to the field of gear manufacturing process inspection, specifically to a flexible positioning tooth thickness measuring device and its measurement method. Background Art

[0002] In the machining industry, how to quickly and accurately measure the tooth thickness during gear processing has always been a major problem in on-site production. Currently, the domestic automotive industry generally uses gear measuring equipment or special gauges to measure the tooth thickness. Gear measuring equipment has high environmental requirements and is placed in a fixed space, and sending it for inspection wastes time, which brings great inconvenience to the measurement. Moreover, the special gauges currently have drawbacks such as poor flexibility, difficulty in placing them flat, and inconvenience in rotation. When measuring the tooth thickness at multiple points, inaccurate measurements and operational errors are likely to occur. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide a flexible tooth thickness measuring device and its measuring method.

[0009] The gear positioning device includes a support, which is fixedly mounted on a worktable. At least two bearing arms are mounted on the support, and positioning bearings are mounted on the bearing arms.

[0010] The base has a tightening groove, and a locking block is installed in the tightening groove. The locking block is connected to the movable support frame by bolts.

[0011] The movable support frame includes uprights and horizontal columns, which are fixedly connected by locking sleeves. A mounting base is provided at the bottom of the upright, and the mounting base at the bottom of the upright is connected to the locking block by bolts.

[0012] The tooth width measuring instrument includes a mounting plate, which is fixedly mounted on a cross column. A rack and pinion arm is connected to the mounting plate via a rotating spindle.

[0014] The fixing rod of the indicator is inserted into the through hole of the expansion sleeve. The expansion sleeve is fixedly mounted on the piston cylinder. Three grooves are opened at one end of the expansion sleeve to form a three-lobed structure. A tapered sleeve is fitted on the three-lobed structure of the expansion sleeve.

[0015] A measurement method for a flexible positioning tooth thickness measuring device includes the following steps:

[0016] S1. Place the standard gear part to be tested on the gear mounting base, rotate the standard gear part horizontally or adjust its position through the sliding device, adjust the position of the tooth width measuring instrument through the movable support frame, so that the measuring ball contacts the involute of the tooth groove of the standard gear part, position the standard gear part through the gear positioning device, set the reading of the tooth width measuring instrument to zero as the reference for subsequent measurement, remove the measuring ball of the tooth width measuring instrument, and remove the standard gear part from the gear positioning device, while ensuring that the positions of the gear positioning device, the gear mounting base and the movable support frame do not change.

[0017] S2. Place the gear part to be tested on the gear mounting base, adjust the tooth width measuring instrument so that the measuring ball contacts the involute of the tooth groove of the gear part to be tested, and read the reading of the indicator.

[0018] S3. When measuring the next tooth thickness, remove the measuring ball of the tooth width measuring instrument, rotate the gear part to be measured, adjust the tooth width measuring instrument so that the measuring ball contacts the involute of the next tooth groove of the gear part to be measured, and read the reading of the indicator again.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0020] The tooth thickness measuring device of this invention includes a base with a sliding device on it. A gear mounting seat is mounted on the sliding device, facilitating the movement of the gear part to be measured. The gear mounting seat has a positioning steel ball and a central through hole. A gear positioning device is installed within the central through hole, and a positioning bearing is mounted on the gear positioning device. The positioning steel ball facilitates the rotation of the gear part during measurement, enabling flexible rotation. The gear positioning device provides precise positioning of the gear. The positioning bearing on the gear positioning device aids in the rotation adjustment, placement, and removal of the gear part on the gear mounting seat. A movable support frame is mounted on the base, and a tooth width measuring instrument is mounted on the movable support frame. The tooth width measuring instrument has a measuring ball and an indicator. The movable support frame facilitates the adjustment of the tooth width measuring instrument's position, making measurement easier, while the indicator facilitates the reading of tooth width data. During measurement, the positioning accuracy of the gear part is high, and the gear part can rotate coaxially or slide via the sliding device, avoiding measurement inaccuracies caused by rigid interference, resulting in high measurement accuracy. Furthermore, the device's flexibility and ease of placement further enhance its measurement accuracy. The device can adapt to various measurement environments, and the measurement is not affected by time and space, making it highly practical.

[0021] Furthermore, the positioning device is equipped with a bearing arm, on which a positioning bearing is mounted. By adjusting the bearing arm, it can be used to install gear parts to be tested with different bore sizes, thus enhancing the practicality of the device.

[0022] Furthermore, a tightening groove is provided on the base, and a locking block is installed inside the tightening groove. The locking block is connected to the movable support frame by bolts. The movable support frame is fixed in different positions on the base by the locking block, the tightening groove, and the bolts, which facilitates adjustment when measuring the gear part to be measured.

[0023] The method of this invention first places a standard gear part on a gear mounting base. By adjusting the relative positions of the gear positioning device, gear mounting base, tooth width measuring instrument, and movable support frame, the measuring ball of the tooth width measuring instrument is brought into contact with the involute of the tooth groove of the standard gear part. Then, the reading of the tooth width measuring instrument is set to zero as the reference for subsequent measurements. The tooth width measuring instrument is then removed, and the standard gear part is taken out of the gear positioning device, while ensuring that the positions of the gear positioning device, gear mounting base, and movable support frame remain unchanged. The relative positions of the gear positioning device, gear mounting base, and movable support frame are positioned using the standard gear part, thereby ensuring the measurement accuracy of the subsequent gear parts to be measured. In subsequent measurements of the same type of gear parts, only different gear parts need to be replaced with different tooth width measuring instruments to obtain the tooth width data of the gear parts to be measured. The measurement process is convenient, fast, and has high accuracy. Attached Figure Description

[0064] like Figure 3 , Figure 13 , Figure 14 , Figure 15 , Figure 17 Figure 19 and Figure 20 As shown, the fixing rod of the indicator 25 passes through the through hole of the expansion sleeve 24. The expansion sleeve 24 is fixedly mounted on the piston cylinder 29. One end of the expansion sleeve 24 has three grooves to form a three-lobed structure. A tapered sleeve 23 is fitted onto the three-lobed structure of the expansion sleeve 24.

[0065] A measurement method for a flexible positioning tooth thickness measuring device includes the following steps:

[0066] S1. Place the standard gear part of the gear part to be tested 12 on the gear mounting base 31, rotate the standard gear part horizontally or adjust the position of the standard gear part through the sliding device 40, adjust the position of the tooth width measuring instrument 35 through the movable support frame 37, so that the measuring ball 11 contacts the involute of the tooth groove of the standard gear part, position the standard gear part through the gear positioning device 34, set the reading of the tooth width measuring instrument 35 to zero as the reference for subsequent measurement, remove the measuring ball 11 from the tooth width measuring instrument 35, and remove the standard gear part from the gear positioning device 34, while ensuring that the positions of the gear positioning device 34, the gear mounting base 31 and the movable support frame 37 do not change.

[0067] S2. Place the gear part 12 to be tested on the gear mounting base 31, adjust the tooth width measuring instrument 35 so that the measuring ball 11 contacts the involute of the tooth groove of the gear part 12 to be tested, and read the reading of the indicator 25.

[0068] S3. When measuring the next tooth thickness, remove the measuring ball 11 from the tooth width measuring instrument 35, rotate the gear part 12 to be measured, adjust the tooth width measuring instrument 35 so that the measuring ball 11 contacts the involute of the next tooth groove of the gear part 12 to be measured, and read the reading of the indicator 25 again.

[0069] Preferably, in the method of the present invention, a standard gear part of the gear part 12 to be tested is first placed on the gear mounting base 31. By adjusting the relative positions of the gear positioning device 34, the gear mounting base 31, the movable support frame 37, and the tooth width measuring instrument 35, the measuring ball 11 of the tooth width measuring instrument 35 is brought into contact with the involute of the tooth groove of the standard gear part. Then, the reading of the tooth width measuring instrument 35 is set to zero as the reference for subsequent measurement. The first rubber ball handle 6 is rotated to separate the measuring ball 11 from the teeth of the standard gear part, and the standard gear part is removed from the gear positioning device 34, while ensuring that the positions of the gear positioning device 34, the gear mounting base 31, and the movable support frame 37 do not change. The relative positions of the gear positioning device 34, the gear mounting base 31, and the movable support frame 37 are positioned by the standard gear part, thereby ensuring the measurement accuracy of the gear part 12 to be tested.

[0070] Furthermore, if the machining dimensions are consistent, the contact position between the measuring ball 11 and the involute of the gear part 12 to be measured is fixed. Using a precision measuring device to measure a gear as a standard part, when the measuring ball 11 contacts the involute of the tooth groove of the standard gear part, the reading of the tooth width measuring instrument 35 is set to zero as the subsequent measurement reference. The tooth thickness of the gear part 12 to be measured can then be calculated based on the data obtained from each measurement using the indicator 25. The measurement process does not require repeated positioning. In subsequent measurements of the same type of gear part 12, only different gear parts 12 need to be replaced with the tooth width measuring instrument 35 to obtain the tooth width data. The measurement process is convenient, fast, and highly accurate.

[0071] In summary, the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
