AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, the processing cost of five-axis CNC machine tools is relatively high. Moreover, when producing a large number of knotter brackets while ensuring the processing accuracy of the brackets, it is impossible to balance processing cost and efficiency. Replacing five-axis machine tools with four-axis CNC machine tools will result in insufficient accuracy.
A combination of three-axis and four-axis machine tool fixtures is adopted. The three-axis machine tool is used to machine the countersunk hole and its end face of the spindle hole, while the four-axis machine tool is used to machine the shaft hole of the tool arm, the shaft hole of the rope clamping disc, and the shaft hole of the knotting nozzle. An absolute coordinate system is established and the coordinate system is transformed to meet the machining accuracy requirements of the knotter bracket.
This technology enables the machining of knotter brackets with complex spatial structures on a four-axis machine tool, reducing machining costs, improving economic efficiency, and meeting machining accuracy requirements.

TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of mechanical processing, and particularly relates to a special fixture for numerical control processing of a space structure of a knotter support and a processing method. BACKGROUND
[0002] A square bale baler is an important equipment for processing straw after crop harvesting, and a knotter is a core component of the square bale baler. The knotter support, as a main structure of the knotter, is a very complex special-shaped workpiece, and each shaft hole has a strict spatial positional relationship, and the assembly precision requirement is high. In addition, the shaft hole and the surface are difficult to process and are not easy to process. If the processing is not accurate, the support blank will be easily wasted.
[0003] The existing Chinese patent 201910017957.X designs a five-axis numerical control machining method and fixture for a double-toothed disc driven knotter support: the knotter support can be machined by clamping once, and the second positioning block with the main shaft hole auxiliary positioning is adopted to realize accurate tool setting, solve the offset of the main shaft hole axis due to the casting error of the support blank, and effectively improve the processing efficiency of the support.
[0004] However, the processing cost of the five-axis numerical control machine tool is high, and the popularization rate is not as high as that of the four-axis numerical control machine tool. Under the requirement of ensuring the processing precision of the support, when producing a large number of knotter supports, the five-axis numerical control machine tool cannot balance the contradiction between the quantity and cost of support processing. Replacing the five-axis machine tool with a four-axis numerical control machine tool can greatly reduce the processing cost and improve the economic benefit. SUMMARY
[0005] In view of the above technical problems, one of the purposes of one mode of the present application is to provide a special fixture for numerical control processing of a space structure of a knotter support, which includes a three-axis machine tool fixture and a four-axis machine tool fixture. The three-axis machine tool fixture can clamp the knotter support to be processed, and process the lower end face counterbore and the end face of the main shaft hole on the three-axis machine tool. The four-axis machine tool fixture can clamp the knotter support to be processed processed by the three-axis machine tool, and process the tool arm shaft hole, the rope clamping disc shaft hole, the knotter nozzle shaft hole, the cylindrical cam surface at the knotter nozzle, and the worm shaft shaft hole. Through the cooperation of the three-axis machine tool fixture and the four-axis machine tool fixture, the knotter support processing precision requirement can be met, the five-axis machine tool is replaced to process the knotter support, the processing cost is reduced, and the economic benefit is improved.
[0006] One of the purposes of one embodiment of the present application is to provide a numerical control machining method for a knotter support space structure, comprising the following steps: first clamping the knotter support on a three-axis machine tool clamp, machining the main shaft hole of the knotter support as a reference hole, establishing an absolute coordinate system, then clamping the knotter support on a four-axis machine tool clamp, finding the coordinates of the corresponding machining position according to the absolute coordinate system established by the three-axis machine tool, transforming the coordinate system to move the position to be machined to the machining station, and completing the machining of the remaining positions. By first machining on a three-axis machine tool to establish an absolute coordinate system, and then transforming the coordinate system of the shaft hole on a four-axis machine tool, the machining precision requirements of the knotter support can be met, and the knotter support can be machined instead of a five-axis machine tool, thereby reducing the machining cost and improving the economic benefit.

[0017] A numerical control machining method of a knotter support bracket space structure comprises the following steps:
[0018] First, the knotter support bracket is clamped by a three-axis machine tool clamp, the main shaft hole of the knotter support bracket is machined as a reference hole, and an absolute coordinate system is established; then, the knotter support bracket is clamped by a four-axis machine tool clamp, the coordinates of the corresponding machining positions are found according to the absolute coordinate system established by the three-axis machine tool, the coordinate system is transformed, and the machining positions are moved to the machining stations, and the machining of the cutter arm shaft hole, the rope clamping disc shaft hole, the knotting nozzle shaft hole, the cylindrical cam surface at the knotting nozzle, the worm shaft hole and the upper end hole of the main shaft hole and the end face thereof is completed.
[0019] The rest of the shaft hole and cylindrical cam surface are processed, and the rotation of the rotary bearing is used to compensate for the B-axis freedom of the four-axis numerical control machine tool in the four-axis machine tool fixture assembly. In the four-axis numerical control machining, the horizontal plane L is established by translating the bottom surface of the knotter support a certain distance upward, and the origin O is established by the intersection of the horizontal plane L and the spindle hole axis of the knotter support. During the shaft hole processing, the workpiece is first rotated by a certain angle around the A-axis of the four-axis machine tool, then the workpiece is rotated by a certain angle around the B-axis of the fixture, and then the positioning pin shaft is used for positioning, so that the end face of the shaft hole to be processed is perpendicular to the tool shaft Z-axis. The tool is moved to the center coordinate of the shaft hole to be processed, and the machining of each shaft hole is completed by feeding up and down along the Z-axis.
[0020] The above scheme comprises the following steps:
[0021] Step S1: three-axis machine tool clamping: clamping the three-axis machine tool fixture on the three-axis numerical control machine tool, and clamping the unprocessed knotter support on the three-axis machine tool fixture;
[0022] Step S2: three-axis machine tool tool setting: positioning the element with the outer contour of the knotter support spindle after clamping in step S1 as the axis, measuring the axis position of the knotter support spindle hole, setting it as the reference axis, establishing the absolute coordinate system and the absolute coordinate origin with the lower end surface of the knotter support spindle hole as the reference plane and making the reference axis perpendicular to the reference plane; completing the tool setting according to the absolute coordinate system and the absolute coordinate origin;
[0023] Step S3: three-axis machine tool processing: using the three-axis machine tool tool to complete the processing of the lower end surface counterbore and the end surface of the knotter support spindle after clamping in step S1;
[0024] Step S4: four-axis machine tool clamping: clamping the four-axis machine tool fixture on the four-axis numerical control machine tool, and clamping the knotter support processed in step S3 on the four-axis machine tool fixture;
[0025] Step S5: four-axis machine tool tool setting: taking the lower end surface of the knotter support spindle hole processed in step S3 as the reference surface, taking the concentric positioning block of the spindle hole as the axis positioning element, determining the spindle hole axis as the reference axis, establishing the four-axis numerical control machine tool coordinate system with the intersection of the reference surface and the reference axis as the workpiece coordinate origin, setting the tool, and determining the positions of the shaft hole, the knotting nozzle shaft hole, the worm shaft hole, and the rope clamping disc shaft hole in the absolute coordinate system according to the absolute coordinate system of the four-axis numerical control machine tool;
[0026] Step S6: Four-axis machine tool processing: sequentially processing the knife arm shaft hole, the rope clamping disc shaft hole, the knot nozzle shaft hole, the cylindrical cam surface at the knot nozzle, the worm shaft hole, when processing the above positions, rotating the four-axis numerical control machine tool processing platform according to the shaft hole position to be processed, changing from the four-axis numerical control machine tool absolute coordinate system to the coordinate system of the shaft hole to be processed; making the shaft hole or the curved surface to be processed reach the processing station, and then processing; the coordinate system of the cylindrical cam surface at the knot nozzle is the same as that of the knot nozzle shaft hole; after the above processing is completed, the main shaft hole concentric positioning block is removed, and the processing of the main shaft hole upper end counterbore and the end face thereof is completed.
[0027] In the above scheme, the change from the four-axis numerical control machine tool absolute coordinate system to the coordinate system of the shaft hole to be processed needs to be rotated around the A-axis and the B-axis respectively, the A-axis is the Y-axis of the four-axis numerical control machine tool, and the B-axis is the Z-axis of the four-axis numerical control machine tool, and the coordinate transformation matrix is:
[0028] T=T A T Β
[0029] In the formula, T A is the transformation matrix of rotation around the A-axis, T Β is the transformation matrix of rotation around the B-axis, and i is the processing sequence.
[0030]
[0031]
[0032] Wherein, θ is the angle of rotation around the A-axis, and β is the angle of rotation around the B-axis.
[0033] Further, the position D i of the center of the shaft hole to be processed in the four-axis numerical control machine tool absolute coordinate system after the coordinate system transformation of step S6 is:
[0034]
[0035] Wherein, x i ', y i ', z i ' are the positions of the center of the shaft hole to be processed in the four-axis numerical control machine tool absolute coordinate system after transformation, and x i , y i , z i are the positions of the center of the shaft hole to be processed in the four-axis numerical control machine tool absolute coordinate system before transformation.
[0036] In the above scheme, the clamping and positioning process of machine tool processing adopts an edge finder, and the main shaft line corresponding to the outer contour of the support shaft hole is determined in a four-point positioning manner.
[0037] Further, when the main axis corresponding to the outer contour of the support shaft hole is determined, the machining coordinates of each shaft hole of the support are adjusted to compensate for the casting error of the knotter support; the error value between the reference point of the unprocessed knotter support and the theoretical reference point is measured by the edge finder as Δx i Δy i Δz i Then the average value of the error values in each direction is obtained; the average value of the deviation of the initial coordinate system origin of the blank and the ideal coordinate system origin in each direction is recorded as (Δx, Δy, Δz), and the corrected machining coordinates can be calculated:
[0038]
[0039] Then the corrected machining absolute coordinates of each shaft hole of the knotter support are (x i ′+Δx′ y i ′+Δy′ z i ′+Δz′).
[0040] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present application are:
[0041] According to one mode of the present application, the three-axis machine tool clamp can clamp the knotter support to be processed, the main shaft hole lower end face counterbore and the end face thereof are machined on the three-axis machine tool, the four-axis machine tool clamp can clamp the knotter support to be processed machined by the three-axis machine tool, and the knife arm shaft hole, the rope clamping disc shaft hole, the knotting nozzle shaft hole, the cylindrical cam surface at the knotting nozzle, and the worm shaft shaft hole are machined. Through the cooperation of the three-axis machine tool clamp and the four-axis machine tool clamp, the machining precision requirement of the knotter support can be met, the five-axis machine tool is replaced to machine the knotter support, the machining cost is reduced, and the economic benefit is improved.
[0042] According to one mode of the present application, by first machining on the three-axis machine tool to establish an absolute coordinate system, and then transforming the coordinate system of the shaft hole on the four-axis machine tool, the machining precision requirement of the knotter support can be met, the five-axis machine tool is replaced to machine the knotter support, the machining cost is reduced, and the economic benefit is improved.
[0043] According to one mode of the present application, the rotary positioning base can rotate around the axis of the rotary bearing, and this rotary motion increases the degree of freedom of the four-axis numerical control machining machine tool. After the rotary positioning base is rotated to a specified position, the rotary positioning base is connected with the fixed positioning base by using the positioning pin shaft. In this way, the machining of the main shaft hole and part of the surface of the knotter support with a complex spatial structure can be completed on the four-axis numerical control machine tool, the machining precision meets the requirement, and the machining cost is greatly reduced compared with the five-axis numerical control machining scheme.
[0044] According to one mode of the present application, the present application ensures good coaxiality between the upper end counterbore of the knotter support and the lower end counterbore thereof during machining of the upper end counterbore by bolt connection of the machined main shaft hole concentric positioning block with the stepped positioning shaft.
[0045] According to one mode of the present application, the knife arm shaft hole is a stepped hole, the inner hole is machined by drilling and reaming, and the counterbore is machined by boring; the rest, such as the rope disc shaft hole, the knotter nozzle shaft hole, and the worm shaft hole, are machined by the processing procedure of drilling first and reaming later. The above-mentioned machining process reduces the positioning reference conversion of the machine tool, improves the machining precision and machining efficiency.
[0046] According to one mode of the present application, there is a cylindrical support between the knotter support fixed base plate and the rotating base, which is connected with the fixed base plate when the rotating base is rotated to a specified position. After being connected, the cylindrical support can reduce the deformation of the rotating positioning base along the axis direction of the positioning stepped shaft when the tool is fed, and accordingly can reduce the stress of the rotary bearing, thereby prolonging the service life of the rotary bearing.
[0047] Note that the description of these effects does not preclude the presence of other effects. One mode of the present application does not necessarily have all the above-mentioned effects. Effects other than the above-mentioned can be clearly seen and extracted from the description, drawings, claims, etc. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0081] The rest of the shaft hole and cylindrical cam surface are processed, and the rotation of the bearing is compensated for the B-axis freedom of the four-axis numerical control machine tool in the four-axis machine tool fixture assembly. In the four-axis numerical control machining, the horizontal plane L is established by translating the bottom surface of the knotter support a certain distance upward, and the coordinate system is established by taking the intersection of the horizontal plane L and the axis of the main shaft hole of the knotter support as the origin O. During shaft hole processing, the workpiece is first rotated by a certain angle around the A-axis of the four-axis machine tool, then the workpiece is rotated by a certain angle around the B-axis of the fixture, and then the positioning pin shaft is positioned to make the end face of the shaft hole to be processed perpendicular to the tool shaft Z-axis. The tool is moved to the center coordinates of the shaft hole to be processed, and the machining of each shaft hole is completed by feeding up and down along the Z-axis.
[0082] According to the embodiment, preferably, the machining method comprises the following steps:
[0083] Step S1: three-axis machine tool clamping: clamping the three-axis machine tool fixture on the three-axis numerical control machine tool, and clamping the unprocessed knotter support on the three-axis machine tool fixture;
[0084] Step S2: three-axis machine tool tool setting: positioning the element with the outer contour of the knotter support main shaft after clamping in step S1 as the axis, measuring the axis position of the knotter support main shaft hole, setting it as the reference axis, establishing the absolute coordinate system and the absolute coordinate origin with the lower end surface of the knotter support main shaft hole as the reference plane and making the reference axis perpendicular to the reference plane; completing the tool setting according to the absolute coordinate system and the absolute coordinate origin;
[0085] According to the embodiment, preferably, the outer contour of the knotter support main shaft hole is measured by a dial indicator, the position of the knotter support main shaft hole axis is determined, the main shaft is taken as the reference axis of the three-axis machine tool, the upper surface of the machining platform by a certain distance (L1=140mm) is taken as the reference plane of the lower end surface of the knotter support main shaft hole, the intersection of the reference axis and the reference plane is taken as the coordinate origin of the absolute coordinate system of the machine tool, and the absolute coordinate system of the three-axis numerical control machine tool is established.
[0086] Step S3: three-axis machine tool processing: using a three-axis machine tool boring tool to complete the processing of the lower end surface counterbore and the end surface of the knotter support main shaft hole after clamping in step S1;
[0087] Step S4: four-axis machine tool clamping: clamping the four-axis machine tool fixture on the four-axis numerical control machine tool, and clamping the knotter support processed in step S3 on the four-axis machine tool fixture;
[0088] Step S5: four-axis machine tool tool setting: taking the lower end face of the knotter support main shaft hole processed in step S3 as the reference plane, positioning the original piece with the main shaft hole concentric positioning block as the axis, determining the main shaft hole axis as the reference axis, taking the intersection of the reference plane and the reference axis as the workpiece coordinate origin to establish the four-axis NC machine tool coordinate system, tool setting is performed, and the positions of the shaft hole centers and the shaft line angles of the knife arm shaft hole, the knotter nozzle shaft hole, the worm shaft hole, and the rope clamp disc shaft hole in the absolute coordinate system are determined according to the four-axis NC machine tool absolute coordinate system;
[0089] According to the embodiment, preferably, in the four-axis NC machine tool, the lower end face of the knotter support main shaft hole is taken as the reference plane, the axis of the main shaft hole is taken as the reference axis, the intersection of the reference plane and the main shaft hole axis is taken as the coordinate origin O0, and the coordinate system of the workpiece is established. Meanwhile, it is set as the coordinate origin O of the absolute coordinate of the machine tool after clamping. According to the positional relationship of the shaft holes in the workpiece coordinate, the initial absolute coordinate center O1 of the knife arm shaft hole is determined as (-19.5, -58, 30), the initial absolute coordinate center O2 of the rope clamp disc shaft hole is determined as (56.14, -158.29, 51), the initial absolute coordinate center of the knotter nozzle shaft hole is determined as O3 (0, -137.64, 14.87), and the initial absolute coordinate center O4 of the worm shaft hole is determined as (80.27, -139.03, 88.17).
[0090] Step S6: four-axis machine tool processing: the knife arm shaft hole, the rope clamp disc shaft hole, the knotter nozzle shaft hole, the cylindrical cam surface at the knotter nozzle, and the worm shaft hole are processed in sequence. When the above positions are processed, the four-axis NC machine tool processing platform is rotated according to the position of the shaft hole to be processed, so that the absolute coordinate system of the four-axis NC machine tool is changed into the coordinate system of the shaft hole to be processed. The shaft hole or the surface to be processed reaches the processing station, and then processing is performed. The coordinate system of the cylindrical cam surface at the knotter nozzle is the same as that of the knotter nozzle shaft hole. After the above processing is completed, the main shaft hole concentric positioning block 13 is removed, and the processing of the upper end counterbore and the end face of the main shaft hole is completed.
[0091] The change from the absolute coordinate system of the four-axis NC machine tool to the coordinate system of the shaft hole to be processed in step S6 needs to be rotated around the A-axis, i.e. the Y-axis of the four-axis NC machine tool, and the B-axis, i.e. the Z-axis of the four-axis NC machine tool, and the coordinate transformation matrix is:
[0092] T=T A T Β
[0093] In the formula, T A is the transformation matrix of rotation around the A-axis, T Β is the transformation matrix of rotation around the B-axis, and i is the processing sequence.
[0094]
[0095]
[0096] wherein θ is the angle of rotation about the A-axis and β is the angle of alignment about the B-axis.
[0097] Further, the position D of the center of the shaft hole to be machined after coordinate system transformation in the absolute coordinate system of the four-axis NC machine tool in step S6 i (i = 1, 2, 3, 4) are:
[0098]
[0099] wherein x i ', y i ', z i ' are the positions of the center of the shaft hole to be machined after transformation in the absolute coordinate system of the four-axis NC machine tool, x i , y i , z i are the positions of the center of the shaft hole to be machined before transformation in the absolute coordinate system of the four-axis NC machine tool.
[0100] In the clamping and positioning process of the machine tool, the edge finder is used to determine the main axis corresponding to the outer contour of the shaft hole of the support in a four-point positioning manner, so as to determine the machining reference axis. Since the blank of the knotter casting has casting errors, the outer contour of the shaft hole of the corresponding support is not an ideal circle, and the geometric reference point of the shaft hole is also not an ideal reference point. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the machining coordinates of each shaft hole of the support to compensate for the casting errors of the knotter support, so that the actual machining center position is as close as possible to the theoretical position, thereby ensuring the accuracy of machining, so that the five main shaft holes of the knotter support and the knotter nozzle cam surface have accurate spatial positional relationship, facilitating the installation of the subsequent knotter parts.
[0101] Generally, A1, A2, A3, A4 and A4 support castings are randomly selected in the same batch of castings, and the error value between the support blank reference point and the theoretical reference point is measured by the edge finder as Δx i Δy i Δz i , and then the average value of the error value in each direction is obtained. Denote the average value of the deviation of the measured blank initial coordinate system origin and the ideal coordinate system origin in each direction as (Δx, Δy, Δz), and then the corrected machining coordinates can be calculated:
[0102]
[0103] so that the deviation distance of the center position of each shaft hole of the machined knotter support from the ideal position is less than ±1mm, and the spatial angular position error between the five shaft holes of the support is less than ±1°, then the corrected machine tool machining absolute coordinates of each shaft hole of the knotter support are (x i ' + Δx' y i ' + Δy' zi ' + Δz').
[0104] According to the present embodiment, preferably, when the four-axis machine tool is processed, the right-hand Cartesian coordinate system is followed, the clockwise rotation angle of the numerical control machine tool around the axis is set as a negative angle, and the counterclockwise rotation angle is set as a positive angle. The lower end surface of the main shaft hole is set as a reference surface, the main shaft hole axis is set as a reference axis, the intersection of the reference surface and the reference axis is set as the workpiece coordinate origin of the knotter support, and when the machine tool is set, the point is set as the absolute coordinate origin in the machine tool coordinate system. And according to the position of the axis center and the axis angle of the cutter arm shaft hole, the knotter shaft hole, the worm shaft hole, and the rope clamping disc shaft hole in the workpiece coordinate system, the initial absolute center position coordinates of each shaft hole of the knotter are determined with the machine tool absolute coordinate system origin as the reference.
