[0040] Reference Figures 1 to 5 A horizontal measuring device and correction method for the cylindricality of a hoop tooling, comprising a base 2, a fixed wedge 3 and a measuring device

[0041] The hoop tooling 1 is used to install the spiral tube assembly 5. The hoop tooling 1 includes a plurality of toothed strips 11 and a plurality of fixed rings 12 installed on the outer surface of the spiral tube assembly 5. The inner side of the fixed ring 12 is provided with a plurality of equally divided inner bosses 121 abutting and cooperating with the toothed strips 11; it includes a base 2 for placing the hoop tooling 1, a plurality of fixed wedges 3 arranged on both sides of the hoop tooling 1 and a measuring device for measuring the distance between the center point of the inner boss 121 of the fixed ring 12 in a plumb state and the base 2. The fixed wedges 3 are placed on the base 2 for detachably fixing the hoop tooling 1; when measurement is required, the tooling is hoisted onto the base 2 by a crane. The base 2 can be a marble platform or an equivalent marking platform. The measuring device is a millimeter vernier caliper. The fixed wedges 3 are made of columnar wooden materials with a triangular cross-section. The wooden materials can effectively avoid damaging the outer surface of the hoop tooling 1.

[0042] Among them, when measuring, first select the fixed ring 12 with better cylindricity as the reference, and then measure the height L of the corresponding inner boss 121 in different quadrants on each fixed ring 12 in turn through the measuring device, and then statistically calculate the height L of different inner bosses 121 in each quadrant relative to the reference point as △Lmax and △Lmin, and determine the cylindricity of the squirrel cage hoop fixture 1. If there is a deviation in the cylindricity, it is corrected by adjusting the thickness of the adjustment block; this measurement method transfers the virtual hoop center to the physical platform, so that the size that cannot be measured intuitively is converted into a size that can be directly measured. The horizontal measurement and correction method of the cylindricity of the multi-layer squirrel cage hoop fixture 1 has the characteristics of no need to convert the reference multiple times and high efficiency. .

[0043] Specifically, the fixed wedge block 3 is provided with a first plane 31 and a second plane 32. The first plane 31 abuts against the upper surface of the base 2, and the second plane 32 abuts against the outer surface of the fixing ring 12. The first plane 31 and the second plane 32 form an acute angle, which facilitates the insertion of the fixed wedge block 3 into the bottom of the fixing ring 12.

[0044] The inner boss 121 is divided into 8 equal parts, and the center points of the inner boss 121 are marked as a, b, c, d, e, f, g, and h respectively.

[0045] Specifically, the hoop fixture 1 also includes a plurality of support plates, a plurality of fixing rings 12 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the spiral tube assembly 5, and the plurality of support plates are installed between two adjacent fixing rings 12, and the two ends of each support plate are respectively and detachably fixedly connected to two adjacent fixing rings 12.

[0046] More specifically, the hoop fixture 1 also includes a plurality of adjustment components 4 installed between the fixing ring 12 and the toothed bar 11; the adjustment component 4 includes a fixing block 41 connected to the fixing ring 12 and an adjustment block 42 connected to the toothed bar 11, the adjustment block 42 is horizontally embedded in the fixing block 41 and detachably fixedly connected by a bolt 43, the bolt 43 passes through the side of the fixing block 41 to press the adjustment block 42; one end of the fixing block 41 is for the fixing ring 12 to pass through and abuts against the inner circumference of the fixing ring 12, and the other end is for the adjustment block 42 to be embedded; one end of the adjustment block 42 is away from the fixing block 41 The toothed bar 11 is passed through and abuts against the outer peripheral surface of the toothed bar 11. There is also a gap of a certain width between the fixed block 41 and the adjusting block 42, and the adjusting block 42 has several different radial thicknesses. When the cylindricity needs to be corrected: the influence of the roundness deviation of the fixed ring 12 on the radial dimensional accuracy formed by the toothed bar 11 can be eliminated by adapting the adjusting blocks 42 with different radial thicknesses or adjusting the width of the gap. The fixing rings 12 can also be adapted to spiral tube assemblies 5 with different diameters by adapting the adjusting blocks 42 with different radial thicknesses or adjusting the width of the gap.

[0047] A horizontal measurement step and correction method for the cylindricity of a hoop tooling, applicable to the above-mentioned horizontal cylindricity measurement device of the hoop tooling 1, comprises the following steps:

[0048] S1. Before assembling the hoop fixture 1, select a fixing ring 12 with better cylindricity as the reference fixing ring 12 at the end of the hoop fixture 1 and mark the center point of the inner boss 121 by a machine tool;

[0049] S2, leveling the base 2 and using it as an external reference for subsequent cylindricity measurement;

[0050] S3, placing the assembled hoop tooling 1 on the base 2, and after the reference fixing ring 12 is in a plumb state, measuring the point dimensions of each inner boss 121 in turn and recording the data to ensure that the reference state of the fixing ring 12 is good;

[0051] S4, rotating the hoop fixture 1 until the center point a of the inner boss 121 of the reference fixing ring 12 is at the bottom, and then inserting the fixing wedge 3 from the side and bottom of the fixing ring 12 to fix it. At this time, point a and point e are in the plumb direction;

[0052] S5. Use a measuring device to measure the height L of the center point of the inner boss 121 of each fixing ring 12 in the same quadrant relative to the base 2 in turn, and record it as La1, La2, La3...LaN, and calculate the difference △La2, △La3...△LaN of each dimension relative to La1 and record the maximum and minimum values;

[0053] S6. Repeat steps S4-S5, rotate the hoop fixture 1 until the center points b, c, d, e, f, g, h are located at the bottom in sequence, and record them as Lb1, Lb2, Lb3...LbN; Lc1, Lc2, Lc3...LcN; ...; Lh1, Lh2, Lh3...LhN, and calculate the difference △Lb2, △Lb3...△LbN; △Lc2, △Lc3...△LcN; △Lh2, △Lh3...△LhN of each dimension relative to Lb1; Lc1; ...; Lh1, and record the maximum and minimum values;

[0054] S7, statistically calculating the height L of different inner bosses 121 on each quadrant relative to the reference point as △Lmax and △Lmin, and determining the cylindricity of the multi-layer squirrel cage hoop fixture 1;

[0055] S8. In order to ensure the cylindricity of the hoop fixture 1, after replacing the adjustment block 42 with different thicknesses according to the size of the difference, re-measure the height L of the replaced inner boss 121;

[0056] S9, repeat step S8 until all replacements are completed.

[0057] Specifically, within the allowable error range, in steps S4-S5, La1; Lb1; Lc1; ...; Lh1 are equal in size.

[0058] Specifically, in step S8, after installing the adjustment assembly 4, the cylindricity is corrected by adjusting the thickness of the adjustment block 42 or the width of the gap.

[0059] In one embodiment, when the height L of the inner boss 121 is less than the reference height, a thicker adjustment block 42 may be replaced or the width of the gap may be increased; when the height L of the inner boss 121 is greater than the reference height, a thinner adjustment block 42 may be replaced or the width of the gap may be reduced; when replacing the adjustment block, loosen the bolt 43, take out the original adjustment block 42, replace the appropriate adjustment block 42 according to the size of the difference, and tighten the bolt 43 to complete the replacement; when adjusting the width of the gap, loosen the bolt 43, move the adjustment block 42 forward or backward in the thickness direction according to the size of the difference, and tighten the bolt 43 to complete the adjustment.

[0060] According to the above operations, after the cylindricity measurement and installation of the adjustment block, a multi-point support structure with relatively good cylindricity can be formed on the inner side of the hoop fixture 1, thereby achieving effective support and precise positioning of the toothed bar 11, and assisting the toothed bar 11 in forming an envelope structure that achieves precise limitation of the cylindricity size of the spiral tube.

[0061] The other contents of the horizontal measuring device and correction method for the cylindricity of the hoop fixture described in the present invention can be found in the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0062] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Therefore, any modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the technical solution of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
