Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aeroengines, and in particular relates to a fixture and a processing method for improving the milling accuracy of blade profiles of large fan rotor blades. Background Art

[0002] The blades of large fan rotors are long and weak in rigidity. There is a damping boss on the middle basin and the back side of the blade. Figure 1 As shown in the figure. The original milling process of the blade profile is from the small end blade profile to the transition between the blade profile and the tenon, that is, the small end of the blade profile is processed first, then the damping platform, then the large end blade body, and finally the transition between the blade profile and the tenon. Since the rigidity of the blade is gradually weakened during the processing, and the blade body is long and the blade profile is thin, it is easy to deform during the processing, which makes it difficult to ensure the geometric accuracy of the blade profile.

[0003] This technology uses a different processing sequence from the original blade processing sequence, that is, the damping table is processed first, then the blade small end, then the blade large end, and finally the blade and tenon transition. At the same time, the processing sequence from the damping table to the blade tip and the tenon side is adopted in the blade processing of the small end and the large end, respectively. The blade clamping rigidity is always maintained during the processing, and the floating flexible clamping is used at the blade tip to avoid clamping deformation, which ultimately reduces the milling deformation of the blade and ensures the geometric accuracy of the blade after milling. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a fixture and a processing method for improving the milling accuracy of large fan rotor blades. By adopting a new blade processing sequence and using a floating device for flexible clamping during the blade clamping process, the milling deformation of the blade is reduced, the milling geometric accuracy of the blade body surface is guaranteed, and the processing quality and pass rate of the blade are improved.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] The clamp part includes a clamp positioning block, a raised portion at one end of the upper surface of the clamp positioning block is hingedly connected to one end of the clamp pressing block, a U-shaped groove is provided at the other end of the clamp pressing block, a stud is installed at the other end of the upper surface of the clamp positioning block, the top end of the stud cooperates with the U-shaped groove of the clamp pressing block and is fixed by a nut, and an adjustable clamp pressing block is installed on the lower surface of the clamp pressing block;

[0008] The adjustable clamp clamp block is composed of a V-shaped clamp block and a connecting column. The connecting column is installed on the top of the V-shaped clamp block. A blind hole for installing the connecting column is opened on the lower surface of the clamp clamp block. At the same time, an adjusting bolt vertically arranged with the blind hole is installed on the clamp clamp block. By loosening the adjusting bolt, the position of the V-shaped clamp block can be rotated in the circumferential direction. After adjustment, the position of the V-shaped clamp block is fixed by tightening the adjusting bolt.

[0009] The upper surface of the fixture positioning block is symmetrically provided with bosses for blade positioning;

[0010] The method for improving the milling accuracy of blade profiles of large fan rotor blades comprises the following steps:

[0011] Step 1: The blade is clamped on both ends of the process table for blade body surface milling

[0012] When clamping the blade, the process table at the blade tip adopts a flexible floating clamping method and is clamped by a flexible floating fixture. That is, during the clamping process, the clamping of the blade tip process table can be adjusted according to the actual position of the blade tip process table to avoid clamping stress.

[0013] Step 2: When milling the blade surface, the damping platform is processed first. Since both the small-end blade and the large-end blade have margins, the stability of the clamping can be guaranteed during the processing to avoid processing deformation.

[0014] Step 3: Milling the small end blade surface

[0015] The processing sequence is: processing from the damping platform to the blade tip. By using a flexible floating fixture, the stability of the clamping can be fully maintained during the processing to avoid processing deformation caused by weakening of the clamping rigidity.

[0016] Step 4: Milling the large blade surface

[0017] The processing sequence is: processing from the damping platform to the lateral blade profile and the tenon transition point. By using a flexible floating fixture, the stability of the clamping can be fully maintained during the processing to avoid processing deformation caused by weakening of the clamping rigidity;

[0018] Step 5: Finally, mill the joint between the blade and the tenon to complete the processing.

[0019] The technical effects of the present invention are:

[0020] This technology uses process tables at both ends for positioning. It adopts a new blade processing sequence and uses flexible floating fixtures for flexible clamping during the blade clamping process to avoid processing deformation caused by weak blade structure rigidity. The geometric accuracy of blade milling is guaranteed by CNC programs and high-precision CNC processing equipment, so that the geometric accuracy of the blade surface after processing meets the design requirements.
