Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of machining, and particularly relates to a drilling device and method for a rocker arm part. Background Art

[0002] As Figure 1 shown, it is an important structural part on an aircraft, and the machining accuracy of this part plays an important role in the function. This part is made of cast steel, with a complex spatial structure, many spatial dimensions, and high dimensional accuracy and position accuracy for some mating surfaces, reaching H8 level accuracy. Especially for the relative position accuracy of holes a, b, and c as shown in Figure 2 , if the design requirements are not met, the mating quality will be seriously affected. At the same time, since this product is a series of components with similar structures, only the height H is different, and other structures and machining requirements are the same. Traditionally, multiple sets of drilling devices are required to complete the drilling operation, which occupies a large area for tooling storage and is not easy to operate. When machining the above hole positions, since this product is a casting, the quality of the non-machined surface is unstable, and the overall size is small, it is difficult to determine a reliable positioning surface. At the same time, during machining, an assembled fixture is often used. The assembly cycle of the assembled fixture is long and it is heavy, which is not conducive to efficient production. Therefore, during the machining of this part, batches or large quantities of products are often scrapped due to the existence of the above factors. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to solve the above problems in the prior art, the present invention designs a special drilling device that can quickly complete the clamping, positioning, and machining of the rocker arm part, and ensure the machining accuracy.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0005] A drilling device for a rocker arm part, comprising a base 1, a drill template 2, a fixed drill bushing 3, a hole-bearing positioning boss 4, a main positioning pin 5, a main support platform 6, an auxiliary support platform 7, a hole-bearing L-shaped pressing plate 8, a column 9, a fastening nut 10, a pressing bolt 11, a positioning pin 12, an L-shaped pressing plate 13, an adjustable drill bushing 14, a lever 15, and a support rod 16.

[0006] The base 1 is made of steel and has an overall square structure, serving as a support and installation platform for all components. It is provided with several bolt holes for installation and fastening and positioning blind holes for positioning.

[0007] The structural form of the drill template 2 is as shown in Figure 9 , and it is provided with mounting holes 2-3 for installing the adjustable drill bushing 14; a depression 2-1 is provided at the lower position of the drill template 2 for overconstraint when installing the part; a boss 2-2 is provided in the middle of the drill template 2, and it is provided with a through hole 2-4 for avoiding the drill bit during machining and bolt holes 2-5 for installing the auxiliary support platform 7.

[0008] The described fixed drill bushing 3 is installed in the hole 2-6 on the drill template 2 and is used to guide the drill bit during drilling.

[0009] The described positioning boss 4 with a hole is in the shape of a stepped shaft. Its small-diameter end is fixedly installed on the base 1, and a pin hole is provided at the large-diameter end of the positioning boss 4 with a hole for the installation of the main positioning pin 5, which plays a role in positioning the hole c of the rocker arm part.

[0010] The described main support platform 6 is in the shape of a stepped shaft. A thread is provided at its small-diameter end, which is screwed into the bolt hole of the base 1. The height of the support on the Q surface of the rocker arm can be adjusted by screwing, which is used to improve the stiffness of the rocker arm during drilling and prevent deformation.

[0011] The described auxiliary support platform 7 is in the shape of a stepped shaft. A thread is provided at its small-diameter end, which is screwed into the bolt hole 2-5 on the drill template 2. The height of the support on the P surface of the rocker arm can be adjusted by screwing, which plays a role in improving the stiffness of the rocker arm during drilling and preventing deformation.

[0012] The described L-shaped pressing plate 8 with a hole, the column 9 and the fastening nut 10 form a set of pressing devices; among them, the column 9 is a cylindrical part with threads at both ends. One end of it is fixedly connected to the bolt hole on the base 1, and the other end passes through the through hole on the L-shaped pressing plate 8 with a hole and is connected to the fastening nut 10, pressing the L-shaped pressing plate 8 with a hole on the L surface of the rocker arm; a rectangular hole is provided on the L-shaped pressing plate 8 with a hole for the drill bit to pass through during drilling.

[0013] The described L-shaped pressing plate 13, the column 9 and the fastening nut 10 form another set of pressing devices; one end of the column 9 is fixedly connected to the bolt hole on the base 1, and the other end passes through the L-shaped pressing plate 13 and is connected to the fastening nut 10, pressing the L-shaped pressing plate 13 on the S surface of the rocker arm to prevent the rocker arm from moving during drilling.

[0014] The described pressing bolt 11 presses the drill template 2 on the base 1. The positioning pin 12 passes through the pin hole at the lower end of the drill template 2 and enters the pin hole on the base 1, playing a positioning role to prevent the position change of the drill template 2 caused by use and improve the accuracy.

[0015] The described adjustable drill bushing 14 is a replaceable drill bushing. For other rocker arm parts with the same structure but only different heights, such as Figure 1 , drill bushings with corresponding lengths can be replaced according to the different heights H to ensure the accuracy and stability of drilling.

[0016] The described lever 15 is a slender rod-shaped part, which is used to adjust the support height of the main support platform 6 or the auxiliary support platform 7 for convenient operation.

[0017] The described support rod 16 is arranged at the lower part of the base 1 and is used to support the operation platform to make the drilling process more comfortable and convenient.

[0018] A method of drilling using the above drilling device, comprising the following steps:

[0019] (1) Install the rocker arm part to be processed on the positioning device. At this time, the Y surface of the rocker arm part fits with the upper surface of the positioning boss 4 with a hole, and the main positioning pin 5 passes through the hole c of the rocker arm part and enters the central hole of the positioning boss 4 with a hole. The N surface of the rocker arm part leans against the vertical surface of the drill template 2 to restrict circumferential rotation.

[0020] (2) Adjust the heights of the main support platform 6 and the auxiliary support platform 7 respectively through the lever 15 so that they are respectively positioned on the Q surface and the P surface of the rocker arm part to improve the overall machining stiffness.
