Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of machining, and particularly relates to a tool length adjustment device and an adjustment method. Background Art
[0002] The machining of the fuel injector holes on the cylinder head requires a special-purpose machine tool. To ensure machining accuracy, the length of the tool usually needs to be adjusted when installing the tool on the special-purpose machine tool. As Figure 1 shown, the tool 100 in the prior art includes a tool shank 101, a cutting blade 102, and an adjusting screw 103. Among them, one end of the tool shank 101 is connected to the cutting blade 102, a threaded hole is provided at the other end of the tool shank 101, and the adjusting screw 103 is screwed into the threaded hole of the tool shank 101. The distance between the highest position of the second shoulder (counting from top to bottom) of the tool shank 101 and the bottom end face of the adjusting screw 103 is defined as the tool length L0. When the adjusting screw 103 rotates relative to the tool shank 101, the tool length L0 will change.
[0003] In the prior art, when installing the tool 100 on the special-purpose machine tool, first, taking the positioning end face in the spindle hole at the installation position of the tool 100 as a reference, ensure that the end face of the adjusting screw 103 is in contact with the above-mentioned positioning end face during installation, and use a lateral fixing member to fix the tool shank 101 on the machine tool spindle. After the tool 100 is installed, the operator uses a depth caliper to measure the current length of the tool 100 with the positioning end face as a reference, then processes a product on this machine tool, and then adjusts the tool length according to the machining dimensions of the finished product, that is, the operator uses a screwing tool to make the adjusting screw 103 rotate relative to the tool shank 101. However, this adjustment method is relatively cumbersome, and the operator completely makes fine adjustments based on processing experience. To reduce the rejection rate, the operator usually makes the processed hole a little shallower, so the depth of the hole is out of tolerance, and it can only meet the process technical requirements after multiple adjustments. The time for replacing the tool 100 each time is relatively long, which affects the machining rhythm and increases the labor intensity of the operator.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a tool length adjustment device to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0055] This embodiment provides a tool length adjustment device, which is mainly used to adjust the tool length L0 of the tool 100 on a machine tool. Among them, as Figure 1 shown, the tool 100 includes a tool shank 101, a tool blade 102 and an adjusting screw 103. One end of the tool shank 101 is connected to the tool blade 102, and a threaded hole is provided at the other end of the tool shank 101. The adjusting screw 103 is screwed into the threaded hole of the tool shank 101, and the distance between the highest position of the second shoulder (counting from top to bottom) of the tool shank 101 and the bottom end face of the adjusting screw 103 is defined as the tool length L0.
[0056] Figure 2 shows a schematic structural diagram of the tool length adjustment device provided by this embodiment. Figure 3 shows a front perspective view of the tool setting block 1 provided by this embodiment. Figure 4 shows a left sectional view of the tool setting block 1 provided by this embodiment; Figure 5 shows a schematic structural diagram of the reference member 3 provided by this embodiment. As Figures 2 - 5 and in combination with Figure 1As shown in the figure, the tool length adjustment device provided in this embodiment includes a tool setting block 1, a guiding member, a reference member 3, and a detection mechanism 2. Among them, a tool mounting hole 11 penetrating along the height direction is provided on the tool setting block 1. The tool mounting hole 11 includes a first hole 111, a second hole 112, and a third hole 113 that are sequentially connected from top to bottom and have gradually decreasing diameters. The tool 100 can pass through the tool mounting hole 11, and the end face of the adjusting screw 103 can abut against the step surface between the second hole 112 and the third hole 113; the guiding member is arranged on the tool setting block 1, and a groove 1011 is provided on the tool shank 101 of the tool 100. The guiding member can extend into the groove 1011 and the two can move relative to each other; the reference member 3 can be placed on the tool setting block 1, and the height of the reference member 3 is L0', and L0 = L0' + H 12 +H 13 ; where H 12 is the depth of the first hole 111; H 13 is the depth of the second hole 112; the detection mechanism 2 includes a height detection member 22, and the detection end of the height detection member 22 can abut against the highest point of the second shoulder of the tool shank 101 counted from top to bottom; when the reference member 3 is placed on the tool setting block 1 and the detection end of the height detection member 22 abuts against the end face of the reference member 3, the reading of the height detection member 22 is zero.
[0057] The steps for adjusting the tool length L0 by the tool length adjustment device provided in this embodiment are as follows: 1) Place the reference member 3 on the tool setting block 1 to perform a zero adjustment operation on the height detection member 22; 2) Remove the reference member 3, install the tool 100 to be adjusted in the tool mounting hole 11 of the tool setting block 1, make the end face of the adjusting screw 103 abut against the step surface between the second hole 112 and the third hole 113, and make the guiding member extend into the groove 1011 of the tool shank 101; 3) Adjust the height detection member 22 so that the detection end of the height detection member 22 abuts against the highest point of the second shoulder of the tool shank 101 counted from top to bottom; 4) The operator inserts a screwing tool from the bottom of the tool setting block 1 into the third hole 113 and rotates the adjusting screw 103 clockwise or counterclockwise according to the reading of the height detection member 22 at this time. The tool shank 101 can move vertically under the guiding action of the guiding member. When the tool shank 101 moves until the height detection member 22 returns to zero again, the adjustment process of the tool length L0 is completed. This tool length adjustment device has a simple structure and is convenient to operate. It can quickly and accurately adjust the tool length L0, shorten the replacement time of the tool 100, reduce the labor intensity of the operator, and adapt to the production rhythm. Among them, the screwing tool specifically refers to an internal hexagonal wrench.
[0058] It should be noted that the reference part 3 is a cylindrical rod with a diameter of 32mm and a height of 128.88mm. When the height detection part 22 is zeroed, the reference part 3 only needs to be placed on the tool holder 1, and there is no need to fix the reference part 3 to the tool holder 1. In addition, the reference part 3 can be placed above the tool mounting hole 11 to ensure the accuracy of the adjustment. The specific steps for processing the reference part 3 are as follows: select a No. 45 steel bar with a diameter of 35.0mm and a height of 150mm, process a cylindrical bar with a diameter of 32.0mm and a height of 29mm on a lathe, and then grind the cylindrical bar to a standard height of 128.88mm to form the reference part 3.
[0059] After the tool 100 has completed the adjustment of the tool length L0 on the tool length adjustment device, it needs to be removed from the tool holder 1. However, during the process of removing the tool 100, if there is a slight shake, the position of the adjusting screw 103 and the tool handle 101 may change, affecting the tool length L0. Therefore, before installing the tool 100 to be adjusted on the tool holder 1, it is necessary to first screw a fastening nut on the adjusting screw 103, and then screw the adjusting screw 103 into the threaded hole of the tool handle 101, but it is necessary to ensure that the end face of the fastening nut cannot abut against the end face of the tool handle 101, so that the adjusting screw 103 can rotate relative to the tool handle 101; after the tool 100 has completed the adjustment of the tool length L0 on the tool length adjustment device, the operator also needs to tighten the fastening nut so that the end face of the fastening nut abuts against the end face of the tool handle 101, thereby fixing the relative position of the adjusting screw 103 and the tool handle 101.
[0060] In order to facilitate the operator to tighten the fastening nut, a tool groove 12 is also provided on the side wall extending along the height direction of the tool seat 1, and the tool groove 12 is connected with the first hole 111. The functions of the tool groove 12 are: first, when the tool 100 to be adjusted is installed in the tool installation hole 11, the operator can observe whether it is installed in place from the tool groove 12 to ensure that the end face of the adjustment screw 103 abuts against the step surface between the second hole 112 and the third hole 113; second, when the tool 100 completes the adjustment of the tool length L0 on the tool length adjustment device, the operator can extend the tightening tool into the tool groove 12 to tighten the fastening nut. Among them, the tightening tool is specifically a fork wrench.
[0061] Optionally, in this embodiment, the tool groove 12 is not a through groove, which can ensure the support strength of the tool holder 1 under the premise of achieving the above functions; in addition, if the tool groove 12 is a through groove, after the tool 100 is installed on the tool holder 1, the height H of the tool holder 1 close to the tool groove 12 is 11 May change, thus affecting the adjustment accuracy.
[0062] To prevent the operator from driving the tool holder 101 and the adjusting screw 103 to rotate synchronously when screwing the fastening nut, a locking hole 13 is further provided on the side wall of the tool setting base 1 extending along its height direction. The guiding member is a locking set screw, and the locking set screw is inserted into the locking hole 13 and can selectively abut against the bottom of the groove 1011 of the tool holder 101. It should be noted that when the operator uses a screwing tool to screw the adjusting screw 103 to move the tool holder 101 in the vertical direction, the locking set screw only extends into the groove 1011 of the tool holder 101 to prevent the tool holder 101 from rotating synchronously with the adjusting screw 103; when the operator screws the fastening nut, the locking set screw abuts against the bottom of the groove 1011 of the tool holder 101 to prevent the tool holder 101 and the adjusting screw 103 from rotating synchronously with the fastening nut.
[0063] Figure 6 The bottom perspective view of the tool setting base 1 provided in this embodiment is shown. As Figure 6 shown, at least one first connection hole 14 is further provided at the bottom of the tool setting base 1. The connecting member is inserted into the corresponding first connection hole 14 and fixed to the base of the machine tool, so as to fix the tool length adjustment device. Of course, in other embodiments, the tool length adjustment device can also be fixed to other structures, as long as it is convenient for the screwing tool to extend into the third hole 113 to screw the adjusting screw 103 and for the tightening tool to extend into the tool setting groove 12 to screw the fastening nut. This embodiment does not limit this.
[0064] Figure 7 The top perspective view of the tool setting base 1 provided in this embodiment is shown. Figure 8 The partial cross-sectional schematic view of the first support 2111 provided in this embodiment is shown. Figure 9 The structural schematic view of the second support 2112 provided in this embodiment is shown. As Figures 7 - 8 and in combination with Figure 2 shown, the detection mechanism 2 further includes an adjustment assembly 21, and the adjustment assembly 21 is configured to adjust the height and / or angle of the height detection member 22. Specifically, the adjustment assembly 21 includes an adjustment bracket 211, a height adjustment member 212, and an angle adjustment member 213. The adjustment bracket 211 is connected to the tool setting base 1; the height adjustment member 212 is vertically adjustably arranged on the adjustment bracket 211; the angle adjustment member 213 is arranged on the height adjustment member 212, and the height detection member 22 is angle adjustably arranged on the angle adjustment member 213.
[0065] Optionally, the height adjuster 212 is a clamp which is sleeved on the adjustment bracket 211. When the operator loosens the fastener of the clamp, the clamp can move up and down along the axis direction of the adjustment bracket 211; after the relative position between the clamp and the adjustment bracket 211 is adjusted, the operator then tightens the fastener. The clamp is a prior art, and the specific structure of the clamp is not limited in this embodiment.
[0066] Optionally, the angle adjuster 213 can be an adjustment post with external threads provided at one end. The adjustment post is threadedly connected to the height adjuster 212. An adjustment hole is provided in the middle of the adjustment post, and the mounting end of the height detector 22 is fixed in the adjustment hole. By rotating the mounting end of the height detector 22, the operator can make the adjustment post rotate relative to the angle adjuster 213, thereby realizing the adjustment of the angle of the height detector 22. This setting can also keep the angle adjuster 213 fixed to the height adjuster 212 at any position.
[0067] Optionally, the height detector 22 is a dial indicator, which is convenient to pick up, easy to install, and has a relatively low manufacturing cost.
[0068] Furthermore, a second connection hole 15 is also provided on the tool setting block 1. The adjustment bracket 211 includes a first bracket 2111 and a second bracket 2112 which are connected. External threads are provided at the bottom of the first support frame 2111, and the first support frame 2111 is screwed into the second connection hole 15.
[0069] Furthermore, as Figures 8 - 9 shown, bearing seat holes and bracket mounting holes which are vertically distributed and communicate with each other are provided at the top of the first bracket 2111. The aperture of the bearing seat hole is larger than that of the bracket mounting hole. The bearing seat hole is used for installing a bearing; the second bracket 2112 is a stepped shaft, and the outer diameter of the small end of the second bracket 2112 is adapted to the aperture of the bracket mounting hole. The second bracket 2112 is connected to the first bracket 2111 through a bearing to realize the relative rotation between the second bracket 2112 and the first bracket 2111. The operator can rotate the second bracket 2112 to make the height detector 22 avoid the reference part 3 or the tool 100, so as to facilitate the picking and placing of the reference part 3 or the tool 100.
[0070] It should be noted that the processing steps of the first bracket 2111 and the second bracket 2112 can be carried out according to the dimensions of the fitting structures such as the tool setting block 1 and the bearing according to the requirements of the drawing. This embodiment does not limit this.
[0071] Further, in this embodiment, the specific processing steps of the tool holder 1 are as follows: 1) Select an aluminum block with dimensions of 102 mm × 102 mm × 60 mm and install it on the machining center; 2) Use a face milling cutter with a diameter of 80 mm and a drill bit with a diameter of 12.0 mm to machine the aluminum block in step 1) into a finished product with dimensions of 100 mm × 100 mm × 58 mm, and perform chamfering at the same time, where, H 11 = 58 mm; 3) Machine the tool mounting hole 11. First, select a drill bit with a diameter of 7.0 mm to drill through; then select a vertical milling cutter with a diameter of 12.0 mm to rough machine the first hole 111 by interpolation. The diameter of the first hole 111 is 27.50 mm and the depth is 46.2 mm. Then select a fine boring cutter with a diameter of 28.01 mm to finely machine the first hole 111 to make its diameter reach 28.016 mm and the depth is 46.0 mm, that is, H 12 = 46 mm; Finally, select a vertical milling cutter with a diameter of 20.0 mm to machine the second hole 112. The diameter of the second hole 112 is 20.0 mm and the depth is 48.50 mm, thereby forming the second hole 112 and the third hole 113, that is, H 13 = 2.50 mm, and the diameter of the third hole 113 is 7.0 mm; 4) Machine the second connection hole 15. Select a drill bit with a diameter of 8.5 mm to rough machine it to a diameter of 8.5 mm and a depth of 25.0 mm; then select an M10×1.5 tap to finely machine it so that the diameter of the second connection hole 15 is 10.0 mm and the depth is 20.0 mm; 5) After re-clamping, machine the locking hole 13. Select a drill bit with a diameter of 8.5 mm to rough machine it to a diameter of 8.5 mm and a depth of 15.0 mm and drill through, that is, make it communicate with the first hole 111; then select an M10×1.5 tap to finely machine it to a diameter of 10.0 mm and ream through; 6) Machine the tool setting groove 12.

[0072] Of course, the above dimensions are not limitations on the tool length adjustment device provided in this embodiment. The specific dimensions can still be adjusted according to the actual situation, and this embodiment does not make any limitations.
[0073] This embodiment also provides a tool length adjustment method based on the above tool length adjustment device. The tool length adjustment method includes the following steps:
[0074] Step S1: Place the reference part 3 on the tool holder 1 and perform a zeroing operation on the height detection part 22;
