Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of tooling fixtures, and more specifically to a pump casing self-extension positioning tooling fixture. Background Technology
[0002] like Figure 1 The pump casing shown has a plane A on its exterior and a conical surface B inside. The lower end of the conical surface B is a reference surface C. Plane A and reference surface C are parallel, and the distance between them is L. A bottom hole D is opened at the lower end of the pump casing 1. The diameter d1 of the bottom hole D is smaller than the diameter d2 at reference surface C. The finished pump casing 1 needs to control the parallelism between plane A and reference surface C, as well as the distance L. Existing tooling fixtures are used in conjunction with milling machines. Milling machines are suitable for making larger pump casings 1, but not so suitable for smaller pump casings 1. The existing processing solution is to use indexable leveling pads on a milling machine. However, milling machine processing has low accuracy, unstable quality, low automation, requires one person to operate one machine, and is costly. Moreover, this processing method can only first mill the surface on the milling machine, and then use the milled plane and the outer circle of the casting for positioning to process the reverse side, resulting in low positioning accuracy of the casting surface. Summary of the Invention

[0016] A plurality of limiting support rods, each of which is uniformly distributed around the disc hole and is elastically moved in the top base, a roller is arranged at the inner end of the limiting support rod, and the roller is adapted to cooperate with the guide inclined surface;
[0017] A tension spring, one end of which is connected with the top base, and the other end of which is connected with the limiting support rod, so that the limiting support rod is kept to move inwardly;
[0018] When the pump shell is pressed down, the B conical surface is adapted to contact the upper end of the core disc, so as to drive the core disc to move downwardly, and when the core disc moves downwardly, each limiting support rod is driven to extend radially outwardly, so that each extended limiting support rod supports and limits the C reference surface of the pump shell.
[0019] Further, a limiting screw is arranged on the base, the limiting screw passes through the core disc, an adjusting compression spring is arranged on the limiting screw, and the compression spring abuts against the core disc, so as to keep the core disc to move upwardly.

[0021] Further, the limiting support rod has a T-shaped structure in cross section, and a "cross" shaped sliding groove is formed in the core disc.
[0022] The pump shell self-extending and positioning tool clamp has the following beneficial effects: each limiting support rod is driven to extend radially outwardly by pressing down the pump shell, so as to support and limit the pump shell, and after clamping by the chuck, turning processing can be performed, after the pump shell is taken away upwardly, each limiting support rod is automatically retracted along with the automatic lifting of the core disc, the clamping process of the pump shell is more convenient, the clamping efficiency is improved, and the precision is also guaranteed.

[0045] The top base 33 is a disc structure, and the diameter of the top base 33 is smaller than the diameter d2 of the D bottom hole of the pump shell 1, so that the top base 33 can be inserted into the pump shell 1.
[0046] The number of equidistant rods 32 is three, and the top base 33 is supported by the three equidistant rods 32, which ensures the parallelism of the top base 33 relative to the base 31, that is, the parallelism between the top base 33 and the chuck 2.
[0047] Specifically, as an optional embodiment in the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 Figure 4 As shown, the limiting support mechanism 4 comprises
[0048] A mandrel 41 is fixedly connected with the base 31 at the lower end and extends into the disc hole at the upper end;
[0049] A core disc 42 is adapted to be elastically moved up and down in the disc hole, the mandrel 41 passes through the core disc 42 and forms a sliding fit with the core disc 42, and a plurality of guide inclined surfaces 421 are arranged around the core disc 42, and the number of the guide inclined surfaces 421 is the same as that of the limiting support rods 43;

[0054] The limiting support rod 43 moves radially in the sliding groove, and the tension spring 44 is also located in the sliding groove, and under the action of the tension spring 44, the roller 45 on the limiting support rod 43 is always pressed against the guide inclined surface 421 of the core disc 42.
[0055] When working, as shown in Figure 5 Figure 7 With the core disc 42 moving downwards, the guide inclined surface 421 presses the roller 45 to drive the limiting support rod 43 to move outward, and the extended limiting support rod 43 can support the pump shell 1.
