[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the present application is further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the present application and do not limit the present application.
[0043] As shown in Figure 1 The present application provides a device for quickly determining the center of the outer diameter circle or clamping center of a large shaft forging, which is composed of a laser level 5 and a rotating support with a magnetic suction seat. The rotating support with a magnetic suction seat includes a magnetic suction seat 1, an end face center pointing shaft 2, a suction seat support 3, and a rotating support 4.
[0044] The end of the end face center pointing shaft 2 in contact with the end face is a sharp tip, and the end of the end face center pointing shaft 2 away from the end face is connected to the center connecting end on the rotating support 4 through a bearing. The center connecting end and the end face center pointing shaft 2 are concentrically arranged to enable the rotating support 4 to rotate 360° around the end face center pointing shaft 2. The rotating support 4 is an extendable rotating support. An extendable arm that can rotate around the end face center pointing shaft 2 is arranged on the center connecting end in a direction perpendicular to the end face center pointing shaft 2. The end of the extendable arm is connected to the laser level 5. The length of the extendable arm is greater than the maximum radius of the shaft forging, and a scale is attached to the outer surface of the extendable arm, so that the laser level 5 is placed at a distance greater than the maximum radius of the shaft forging.
[0045] When the rotating support 4 rotates 360° around the end face center pointing shaft 2, the extendable connecting arm drives the laser level 5 to move to adjust the appropriate position of the laser in the radial direction of the shaft forging.
[0046] The suction seat support 3 is an L-shaped support. One end of the L-shaped support is parallel to the end face center pointing shaft 2 and the other end is connected to the magnetic suction seat 1. The other end of the L-shaped support is perpendicularly connected to the end face center pointing shaft 2. The outer end surface of the magnetic suction seat 1 in contact with the end face is horizontally flush with the sharp tip of the end face center pointing shaft 2. The outer end surface mentioned here is a flat surface. When the magnetic suction seat 1 is placed on the end face, the laser level 5 is perpendicular to the outer end surface by default.
[0047] The present application also provides a method for quickly determining the center of the outer diameter circle or clamping center of a large shaft forging, as shown in Figures 2-8 The laser level 5 is used to irradiate the end face of the shaft forging, so that three groups of mutually intersecting and perpendicular laser lines are generated (as shown in Figures 2-3 , Figure 2To simplify the later formed one of the group of mutually perpendicular laser lines; Figure 3 The principle of laser level 5 to form laser lines in a fan-shaped manner on the end face of the rotary body); and make the intersection points of each group of laser lines equal in up and down and left and right, the area circle formed by the three intersection points (such as Figure 4 O1, O2, O3) is the area where the center of the two end faces of the shaft forging is located.
[0048] Specifically, the two end face center area determination process is as follows: use laser level 5 to irradiate the end face of the shaft forging in the direction perpendicular to the end face (form O1), clockwise rotate 30° and counterclockwise rotate 15° (form O2 and O3 respectively), adjust the height of the device to make it produce three groups of mutually intersecting vertical laser lines at one end face of the shaft forging, and make the intersection points equal in up and down and left and right, the area circle formed by the three intersection points is the area where the center of the end face is located.
[0049] Then, as shown in Figure 5 and 6 , place the device at one end of the shaft forging 6: use the magnetic suction seat 1 to be adsorbed on the end face of the shaft forging 6, adjust the magnetic suction seat 1 to make the end face center pointing shaft 2 align with the area where the end face center is located, adjust the length l of the telescopic arm of the rotating support 4 (l> the maximum radius size of the shaft forging), make the laser level 5 irradiate a laser line M1 around the shaft forging, and measure the distance between the laser line M1 and the outer circular surface of the stepped shaft segment at the other end face. Figure 7 Make the laser level 5 rotate by a certain angle, and measure the distance between the laser lines M2-M6 (or more laser lines) and the outer circular surface of the stepped shaft segment at the other end face again.
[0050] Then, as shown in Figure 8 , place the magnetic suction seat 1 at the stepped shaft at the middle part of the shaft forging, adjust the position of the magnetic suction seat 1 to make the end face center pointing shaft 2 align with the end face center; adjust the length of the telescopic arm of the rotating support to make the position height of the laser level 5 greater than the radius of the largest stepped shaft segment, make the laser level 5 emit a laser line around the shaft forging, and measure the distance between the laser line and the outer circular surface of the stepped shaft segment.
[0051] Adjust the inclination angle of the laser level 5 to emit the laser line to make all the measured distances equal, determine the center of the end face, and fix the pose of the laser level 5; in turn, measure the distance between the laser line and the outer circular surface of the remaining stepped shaft segment, and check whether the centers of the two end faces meet the actual processing requirements.
[0052] In the above method, the specific detailed steps are as follows:
[0053] Step 1: as shown in Figure 2As shown, at the left end of the shaft forging 6, the rotating support 4 is elongated or shortened to adjust the position height of the laser level 5, and the laser level 5 is used to form two mutually intersecting vertical straight lines L1 and L2 on the surface of the left end portion, the lengths of the upper and lower and left and right side line segments of the intersection point are measured by a ruler, the laser level 5 is moved to make the upper and lower and left and right side line segments equal, and the intersection point O1 is marked;
[0054] Step 2: As shown in Figure 4 and , the laser level 5 is rotated clockwise by 30° and counterclockwise by 15° respectively from the position where the L1 straight line of the intersection point O1 is perpendicular to the ground on the end surface of the shaft forging, two mutually intersecting vertical straight lines are formed on the end surface at each angle (similar to the L1 and L2 corresponding to the O1 point), the lengths of the upper and lower and left and right side line segments of the intersection point are measured by a ruler, the laser level 5 is moved to make the upper and lower and left and right side line segments equal, and the intersection points O2 and O3 are marked. A smooth curve is used to connect O1, O2 and O3 to form a region circle, as shown in
[0055] , the center of the end portion is in this region circle. Figure 5 6 Step 3: As shown in and
[0056] , the magnetic suction seat 1 is placed at one end 61 of the shaft forging, the basic position of the device is adjusted so that the end surface center pointing axis 2 is aligned with the region circle of the end surface center planned in the above steps. The length of the telescopic arm of the rotating support 4 is adjusted so that the distance between the laser level 5 and the center pointing axis 2 is greater than the radius of the maximum stepped shaft segment, and the laser level 5 emits a laser line M1 in the meridian direction around the shaft forging, and the distance between the laser line and the outer circular surface of the adjacent stepped shaft segment is measured based on the laser line M1. Figure 6 7 Step 4: As shown in and
[0057] , the magnetic suction seat 1 is placed at the said one end 61 of the shaft forging, and the rotating support 4 is rotated at a certain angle for multiple times, which will form a certain number of laser lines (M2-M6…) in the meridian direction around the shaft forging, so that the shaft forging can be measured at multiple angles more conveniently, the center position O of the said one end is further determined by ensuring that multiple laser lines are equidistant from the outer circular surface, the measurement error is reduced, and the accuracy of the measurement is ensured. Figure 7 Figure 5 Step 5: As shown in 6 , the center position O of the said one end is determined by the intersection of the laser lines M1 and M2, and the intersection of the laser lines M3 and M4.The same method is used to measure the distance between the laser line and the outer surface of the stepped shaft segment 62 at the other end face, the rotating support 4 is rotated by a certain angle, the distance between the laser line M1 and the outer surface of the stepped shaft segment at the other end face is measured again, the rotating support is rotated multiple times, and the distances M2 and M3 or more laser lines are measured multiple times, and the distances between each laser line and the outer surface of the adjacent shaft segment are measured in sequence as M10-M30…Adjust the position of the laser level 5 (adjust the inclination angle of the laser line emitted by the laser level 5 so that all the measured distances are equal) so that the distances between the above measured laser lines and the outer surface of the stepped shaft segment at the other end face are equal, so that the laser line is parallel to the central axis of the shaft forging. Determine the center of the other end face.
[0058] Step 6: Use the above measurement method, as shown in Figure 8 , measure the distance between the laser line and the outer surface of all stepped shaft segments (63-67) in sequence, record the distance data, and check whether the data meets the actual processing requirements. If the distances between the above measured outer surfaces of all stepped shaft segments and the laser line do not meet the actual processing requirements, adjust the positions of the magnetic suction seat 1 and the end face shaft center pointing shaft 2, and perform the above steps again to perform sequential measurements until the end face center that meets the actual processing requirements is found.
