Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of precision measurement technology, and in particular to a tooling structure for implementing a gear grinding tool for a locking device and an installation method. Background Art
[0002] The locking device is a component of the integrated inertial measurement system. As part of the system, it mechanically locks the IMU to the IMU chassis, achieving both positioning and locking. It can withstand mechanical environments such as vibration, shock, and overload, ensuring reliable locking between the IMU and the chassis.
[0003] The locking mechanism's main components include an upper and lower gear plate. When engaged, these two plates mechanically lock the inertial measurement unit (IMU) to the IMU chassis. The upper gear plate is also called the fixed gear plate, while the lower gear plate is also called the lift gear plate. These two plates form a pair of end-face gear plates, utilizing the averaging effect of multiple teeth to improve repeatability.

By designing specialized grinding tooling, combined with a dedicated grinding machine, the tooth profile and repeatability accuracy of the lifting and fixed sprockets can be guaranteed. Furthermore, the locking device only features a lifting system, not an indexing system, making it difficult to grind every tooth of the sprocket 360°, making the grinding process difficult to carry out.

[0033] As shown in the figure, a tooling structure for grinding a gear disc of a locking device includes a workbench 1. A fixedly connected gear-grinding base 2 is provided above the workbench 1. The gear-grinding base 2 is used to support the entire tooling structure. A gear-grinding machine 14 is provided at the center position of the workbench 1, and power transmission is achieved by energizing the gear-grinding machine 14. An inner hole is provided at the center position of the gear-grinding base 2, and the inner hole is substantially coaxial with the gear-grinding machine 14 of the workbench 1. A fixedly connected shaft sleeve 5 is provided on the inner hole, and a grinding core shaft 4 passing through the shaft sleeve 5 is provided in the shaft sleeve 5. The lower end of the grinding core shaft 4 is connected to the gear-grinding machine 14 via a lifting shaft 13. The lifting shaft 13 passes through the workbench 1 and abuts against the grinding core shaft 4. The gear-grinding machine 14 transmits power to the grinding core shaft 4 by means of the lifting shaft 13.
[0034] A transition plate 7 is fixedly attached to the upper end of the grinding mandrel 4. A lower toothed disc 12 is disposed above the toothed base 2. The lower surface of the lower toothed disc 12 is provided with through-holes on both sides. The upper surface of the toothed base 2 is provided with blind holes corresponding to the through-holes, which are engaged with the through-holes via locating pins 8. An upper toothed disc 11 is disposed below the transition plate 7. The upper toothed disc 11 is fixedly attached to the transition plate 7 via screws and meshes with the lower toothed disc 12. The upper and lower toothed discs 11 and 12 are mounted with their tooth surfaces facing each other, initially in meshing engagement. The toothed surface of the lower toothed disc 12 is located above the end face of the lower toothed disc 12. An inner sand retaining ring 6 is provided on the inner ring of the toothed disc 12, while an outer sand retaining ring 3 is provided on the outer ring of the toothed disc 12. Abrasive sand is evenly added to the inner and outer sand retaining rings 6 and 3, and the rings block the abrasive sand to prevent it from escaping. The grinding mandrel 4 is positioned at the center of the workbench 1 and the toothed base 2. Specifically, the grinding core shaft 4 is arranged at the center of the entire structure and performs axial movement to achieve the grinding effect.
[0035] A ratchet 9 is mounted above the transition plate 7, its lower surface fixedly connected to the transition plate 7 via screws. A shift fork assembly corresponding to the ratchet 9 is mounted on the workbench 1. The shift fork assembly comprises a shift fork 10, a coupling 17, a base 15, and a sleeve 16. The base 15 is fixedly connected to the workbench 1 via screws. A drive motor 19 is housed within the base 15, its shaft extending through the center of the base 15 and connected to the coupling 17. The bottom end of the sleeve 16 is sealed to the base 15, maintaining a sealed seal across the entire shift fork assembly. The shift fork 10 has an inverted L-shaped structure. One end of the shift fork 10's bend extends through the sleeve 16 and connects to the coupling 17, while the other end of the bend engages with the ratchet 9. Bearings 18 are mounted at each of the upper and lower ends of the shift fork 10, with the outer diameter of the bearing 18 engaging the inner wall of the sleeve 16. When the shift fork 10 rotates, the bearings 18 rotate with it without stagnation.
[0036] During actual use, the driving motor 19 is energized to provide power, and the motor shaft rotates to drive the fork 10 to rotate 360°. The fork 10 and the ratchet 9 only contact at a fixed angle. When a cycle of grinding is completed, the upper toothed disc 11 is in a raised state, and the fork 10 rotates to a position of contact with the ratchet 9, driving the ratchet 9 to rotate a certain angle to continue the next cycle of grinding.

Vaseline is evenly applied to the bottom of the inner and outer sand rings 6 and 3, and the grinding sand is evenly added into the inner and outer sand rings 6 and 3.
[0041] S4. Fix the upper gear disc 11 and the transition plate 7 with screws, ensuring that the upper gear disc 11 and the transition plate 7 are coaxial.
[0042] S5. Insert the grinding mandrel 4 along the center of the lower gear disc 12, install the lower end into the shaft sleeve 5, and abut against the gear-beating machine 14 and the lifting shaft 13.
[0043] S6. Install the upper toothed disc 11 and the transition plate 7 above the grinding mandrel 4. The grinding mandrel 4 presses against the upper toothed disc 11, and the upper toothed disc 11 is engaged with the lower toothed disc 12.
[0044] S7. Install the ratchet 9, ensure the coaxiality of the ratchet 9 and the transition plate 7, and adjust the shift fork assembly so that the gear-beating machine 14 can drive the gear disc to grind up and down, and can be dislocated intermittently.
