Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of CNC machining, specifically relating to a process for machining filter housings using CNC machining equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Cavity filters are key components of modern mobile communication systems, widely used in wireless communication base stations and various communication terminals. A cavity filter consists of an RF connector, a cavity, a cover plate, multiple resonator units, and frequency tuning and coupling strength adjustment components. The resonant frequencies of the multiple resonator units are distributed within the passband, blocking signals outside the resonant frequency and thus selectively selecting microwave transmission signals. High precision is required in the machining of the resonator stages and cavity depth within the cavity.

[0003] Currently, the common method for machining cavity filters is to use floating pin positioning and upward machining. However, due to unstable die-cast blank dimensions and unstable clamping, problems such as misalignment of the inner cavity hole coordinates, unstable resonant stage and cavity depth dimensions, and out-of-tolerance coupling dimensions occur. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problems of unstable die-cast blank dimensions and clamping in existing technologies, such as floating pin positioning and upward machining, which lead to misalignment of internal cavity hole coordinates, unstable dimensions of the resonant stage and cavity depth, and out-of-tolerance coupling dimensions, this invention provides a CNC machining process for filter housings. First, the pressure plate position and positioning holes are machined, and then fixed pins are used for positioning and downward clamping. This better ensures the stability of key dimensions and effectively guarantees the machining quality of the filter housing.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

Then, load the long pressure plate through the mounting pins on the fixture and use the long pressure plate to press the blank.

[0025] Then, process several end faces of the pressure plate positions to ensure that the height difference between the machine-made surfaces of the pressure plate positions is H, and the dimensions from the machine-made surfaces of the pressure plate positions to the bottom surface of the inner cavity are h3 and h4, respectively, and H = h3 + h4.

[0026] As a further limitation of the present invention, the specific process of step 4) for secondary processing of surface A is as follows:

[0027] First, using the machined surfaces of several pressure plate positions processed in one machining operation on surface A as a reference, the positioning pins on the fixture are matched with several through holes to achieve precision hole positioning. The blank is pressed by the cylinder on the fixture and supported by the bottom support block of the fixture.

[0028] Then, the features of surface A, such as the large surface, inner cavity, and boss, are machined to meet the machining requirements, ensuring a cavity depth of 30.00 (+ / -0.30) mm;

[0029] Next, machine the through holes, round holes, waist holes, and threaded holes on surface A;

[0030] Finally, process the remaining features on surface A of the product drawing according to the drawing requirements.

[0031] As a further limitation of the present invention, the specific process of step 5) for secondary processing of surface B is as follows:

The blank is pressed by the cylinder on the fixture and supported by the bottom support block of the fixture.

[0033] Then, process the features of the B side, such as the large surface, inner cavity, boss, and heat dissipation teeth, to meet the processing requirements, ensuring a cavity depth of 30.00 (+ / -0.30) mm, and process the planar features other than the PCB cover plate surface.

[0034] Next, machine all the through holes and threaded holes on surface B;

[0035] Finally, the remaining features on surface B of the product drawing were processed to meet the requirements of the drawing.

[0036] As a further limitation of the present invention, the specific process of step 6) of performing three processing steps on surface B is as follows:

[0037] First, using surface A as a reference, the precision hole positioning is achieved by using the positioning pins on the fixture to engage with several through holes. The blank is then pressed by the cylinder on the fixture and supported by the bottom support block of the fixture.

[0038] Then, process the PCB cover plate on side B, as well as the through holes, countersunk holes, and threaded holes, and process the features of the PCB cover plate surface area.

[0039] As a further limitation of the present invention, the specific process for machining surface C1 in step 6) is as follows:

[0040] First, machine the boss surface of surface C1, then machine the precision holes, round holes, waist holes and threaded holes on surface C1, and finally machine the remaining features of surface C1 to meet the machining requirements of the drawing.

[0041] As a further limitation of the present invention, the specific process of sequentially processing surfaces C2, C3, and C4 in step 7) is as follows:

[0042] First, using surface A as a reference, install several through holes onto the positioning pins on the fixture for positioning. Then, load the long pressure plate through the mounting pins on the fixture and use the long pressure plate to press the blank.

[0043] Next, the CNC machining center is paused, and the fixture is rotated 180 degrees with the billet to machine the C2 surface gate and the countersink.

[0044] Next, pause the CNC machining center, control the fixture to rotate 90 degrees with the blank, machine the large surface of C3, machine the threaded hole of the toothed sleeve, machine the pressure plate position, and leave a 0.3mm grinding allowance;

[0045] Finally, pause the CNC machining center, control the fixture to rotate 180 degrees with the blank, machine the C4 surface and T side groove to meet the drawing requirements, machine the pressure plate position, and leave a 0.3mm grinding allowance.

[0046] As a further limitation of the present invention, the post-processing operation of the processed shell material in step 8) is specifically as follows:

[0047] First, place the product with the inner cavity facing down and magnetically grind for 3 minutes. Be careful to protect the product's appearance and prevent scratches or damage.

[0048] Then, the magnetically ground shell is clamped using a fixture, and a robotic arm is used to wet grind the shell.

[0049] Next, two dental braces were attached to the side of the shell;

[0050] Next, the shell is deburred, and the areas to be powder coated are chamfered at sharp angles. Surface debris and aluminum shavings are then blown away.

[0051] Finally, the shell is subjected to surface oxidation, powder coating, and electroplating in sequence.

[0052] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0053] 1. The processing technology of this invention first processes the pressure plate position and positioning hole, and then uses a fixed pin for positioning and a downward pressing method, which can better ensure the stability of key dimensions and effectively ensure the processing quality of the filter housing.

[0076] To facilitate understanding of this application, a more complete description will be provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate embodiments of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of this application will be thorough and complete.

[0077] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

[0078] It should be noted that the singular forms of "a," "an," and "the" may also include the plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that terms such as "comprising / including" or "having" specify the presence of the stated feature, whole, step, operation, component, part, or combination thereof, but do not preclude the possibility of the presence or addition of one or more other features, wholes, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof.

[0079] like Figure 1 As shown, the CNC machining process for the filter housing of the present invention first involves correcting the blank to be machined. On the correction platform, a correction fixture is used to correct the flange surface and pressure plate position of surface A to ensure that the flatness is ≤0.3mm; the bottom plane of the inner cavity is corrected to ensure that the dial gauge range is ≤0.2mm.

[0080] Specifically, first use a rubber mallet to align the flange face and pressure plate position on the alignment base plate to ensure flatness is ≤0.3mm. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The black lines in the text represent the entire large surface area, indicating the alignment of the flange face and pressure plate position on side A.

[0081] Then, calibrate the bottom plane of the inner cavity to ensure that the dial indicator range is ≤0.2mm;

[0082] Finally, use a knife-edge ruler to check the two pressure plate positions in the middle of surface B to ensure that the flatness is ≤0.1mm. Figure 3 As shown by the black lines in the middle.

[0083] The specific method for using a rubber mallet to calibrate the A-side flange face and pressure plate position on the calibration base plate is as follows: Place the product on the calibration base plate and use a 0.3mm feeler gauge to insert along the edge of the product. If the feeler gauge can be inserted, it indicates that the product deformation exceeds 0.3mm, and the corresponding area needs to be tapped with the rubber mallet until the feeler gauge can no longer be inserted. It should be noted that the product must not be damaged when performing the above calibration operation, and a feeler gauge must be used to check after calibration.

[0084] After completing the above correction process, surface B is processed once.

[0085] The specific processing steps are as follows:

[0086] First, using the bottom surface of the inner cavity of surface A as a reference, install the three die-casting pre-holes 21 on the billet onto the positioning pins 11 on the fixture, and position them through the die-casting pre-holes. Then, load the long pressure plate 22 onto the fixture through the mounting pins 12, and use the long pressure plate 22 to press the billet. Figure 4 , 5 As shown;

[0087] Then, machine the end faces of the six pressure plate positions 23, ensuring that the height difference between the machined surfaces of the pressure plate positions 23 is 73.5±0.03mm, and the dimensions from the machined surface of the pressure plate position 23 to the bottom surface of the inner cavity of surface A are 36.9±0.2mm and 36.6±0.2mm respectively. Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown;

[0088] Next, machine three Ф7.5mm (+0.05 / 0) through holes 24 for positioning in subsequent processes, such as... Figure 6 As shown.

[0089] After completing the above processing steps, surface A is processed once.

[0090] The specific processing steps are as follows:

[0091] First, using the bottom surface of the inner cavity of surface B as a reference, the three through holes 24 machined above are installed onto the positioning pins 13 on the fixture for positioning. Then, the long pressure plate 25 is loaded through the mounting pins 14 on the fixture, and the long pressure plate 25 is used to press the blank. Figure 8 , 9 As shown.

[0092] Then, machine the end faces of the six pressure plate positions 26, ensuring that the height difference between the machined surfaces of the pressure plate positions 26 is 73.5±0.03 mm. The dimensions from the machined surfaces of the pressure plate positions 26 to the bottom surface of the inner cavity are 32.1±0.2 mm and 41.4±0.2 mm, respectively. Figure 10 , Figure 11 As shown.

[0093] It should be noted that the reason why this solution involves processing surface B once, then processing surface A once and twice, and then processing surface B a second and third time, is that, on the one hand, ... Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the long pressure plate 22 presses down on the product, blocking the features on side B, making it impossible to process them all. Furthermore, because the product has a double-cavity structure, directly processing the features on side B cannot guarantee the cavity depth. This process design flow is based on the product structure and meets the dimensions specified in the drawings. The first machining of sides B and A is for milling the support and positioning parts; the second machining of side A and the second and third machining of side B are to ensure that all features meet the dimensional requirements of the drawings.

[0094] After completing the above processing steps, surface A undergoes secondary processing.

[0095] Specifically, taking the machined surfaces of the six pressure plate positions 26 processed in the first machining operation on side B as a reference, the positioning pins 13 on the fixture cooperate with the three Ф7.5 through holes 24 to achieve precision hole positioning. The blank is clamped by the cylinder on the fixture, and auxiliary support is provided by the bottom support block of the fixture. Figure 12 , 13 As shown;

[0096] Then, the large surface, inner cavity, boss and other features of surface A are machined to meet the machining requirements, ensuring a cavity depth of 30.00 (+ / - 0.30) mm;

[0097] Next, machine the through holes, round holes, waist holes, and threaded holes on surface A.

[0098] Specifically, machine 5 through holes of Ф7.5(+0.05 / 0)mm; Ф4.15(+ / -0.03)mm holes, 14mm deep round holes; machine 2 holes of Ф5.0(+0.05 / -0)mm, 27mm deep; 1 hole of Ф4.0(0 / -0.05)mm, 9mm deep; spot drill 511 holes of Ф2.75mm, 10mm deep, and make countersunk holes of Ф3.2mm, 0.6mm deep; machine 4 M14*1.0-6G threads; 4 through holes of Ф7.2(+ / -0.05)mm; machine 4 holes of Ф10.5(0 / -0.05)mm. 0.5 mm hole, 3.0 mm deep; 12 holes with a diameter of 9.22 (+ / -0.02) mm; 16 holes with a diameter of 7.22 (+ / -0.02) mm; 4 holes with a diameter of 6.22 (+ / -0.02) mm; 32 M2.5 holes, 6.0 mm deep; 8 M2.5 holes, 6.0 mm deep; 32 M3 holes, 6.0 mm deep; 20 M3 holes, 5.0 mm deep; 5 M3 holes, 6.5 mm deep; 2 M4 holes, 8.0 mm deep; 13 M4 holes, 9.0 mm deep; 4 M4 holes, 9.0 mm deep; 40 M4 holes, 7.0 mm deep.

[0099] Finally, engrave the lettering according to the drawing requirements, including the drawing number, version number, machine number, and date, and process all other features on side A of the product drawing to meet the processing requirements of the drawing.

[0100] After completing the above processing steps, surface B undergoes secondary processing.

[0101] Specifically, taking the machined surfaces of the six pressure plate positions 23 processed in one machining operation on surface A as a reference, the positioning pins 11 on the fixture cooperate with the three Ф7.5 through holes 24 to achieve precision hole positioning. The blank is clamped by the cylinder on the fixture, and auxiliary support is provided by the bottom support block of the fixture. Figure 14 , 15 As shown;

[0102] Then, process all features such as the large surface, inner cavity, boss, and heat dissipation teeth of the B side to meet the processing requirements, ensuring a cavity depth of 30.00 (+ / -0.30) mm, and process planar features other than the PCB cover plate surface;

[0103] Next, machine all through holes on surface B (machine 12 through holes with a diameter of 7.22 (+ / -0.02) mm; spot drill 590 holes with a diameter of 2.75 mm and a depth of 10 mm; countersink 3.2 mm holes with a depth of 0.6 mm), and machine low-profile grooves to ensure a width of 6.12 (+ / -0.02) mm and a depth of 6.09 (+ / -0.02) mm; and machine all threaded holes on surface B (spot drill and tap 8 M2.5 threaded holes with a depth of 5.0 mm; 32 M2.5 threaded holes with a depth of 6.0 mm; 20 M3 threaded holes with a depth of 6.0 mm; 32 M3 threaded holes with a depth of 6.0 mm; 2 M4 threaded holes with a depth of 8.0 mm; 40 M4 threaded holes with a depth of 7.0 mm; 10 M4 threaded holes with a depth of 8.5 mm).

[0104] Finally, all other features on surface B of the product drawing are processed to meet the requirements of the drawing.

[0105] After completing the above processing steps, surface B is processed three times.

[0106] Specifically, using surface A as a reference, the locating pins on the fixture engage with three Ф7.5 through holes to achieve precision hole positioning. The blank is then clamped by a cylinder on the fixture, and further supported by a bottom support block. Figure 16 As shown;

[0107] Then, process the B-side PCB cover plate by spot drilling 46 Ф2.75mm holes with a depth of 10mm; Ф3.2mm countersunk holes with a depth of 0.6mm; 72 Ф2.25mm holes with a depth of 8mm; Ф2.6 countersunk holes with a depth of 0.6mm; spot drilling and tapping 3 M2.5 threaded holes with a depth of 6.0mm, and processing all features of the PCB cover plate surface area.

[0108] Next, the CNC machining center is paused, and the fixture is rotated 90 degrees with the blank to machine the C1 surface.

[0109] Specifically, the C1 surface boss is machined by spot drilling and reaming four 9.22mm precision holes, machining a Ф6.0mm round hole and a waist hole, spot drilling and tapping 16 M3 holes (8.0mm deep), one M4 threaded hole (8.0mm deep), and four M4 threaded holes (8.0mm deep). Finally, all remaining features are machined to the drawing, such as... Figure 17 As shown.

[0110] After completing the above processing steps, C2, C3, and C4 surfaces are processed sequentially.

[0111] Specifically, first, using surface A as a reference, install the three Ф7.5 through holes onto the locating pins on the fixture for positioning. Then, load the long pressure plate using the mounting pins on the fixture, and use the long pressure plate to clamp the blank. Figure 18 As shown;

[0112] Next, the CNC machining center is paused, and the fixture is rotated 180 degrees with the billet to machine the gate on surface C2 and the countersink.

[0113] Next, pause the CNC machining center, control the fixture to rotate 90 degrees with the blank, machine the large surface of C3, tap two M8 threaded holes with a hole depth of 18mm, mill off the pressure plate position, and leave 0.3mm grinding allowance.

[0114] Finally, pause the CNC machining center, control the fixture to rotate 180 degrees with the blank, machine the C4 surface, T side groove, mill off the pressure plate position, and leave 0.3mm grinding allowance.

[0115] After completing the above processing, the processed shell material undergoes post-processing.

[0116] Specifically, first place the product with the inner cavity facing down and magnetically grind it for 3 minutes, taking care to protect the product's appearance and prevent scratches or damage;

[0117] Then, the magnetically ground shell is clamped using a general-purpose fixture, and a robotic arm is used to wet grind the shell, with each surface not exceeding 0.5 minutes.

[0118] Next, two M8 threaded rods are machined on the side of the housing;

[0119] Next, the shell is deburred, and the areas to be powder coated are chamfered at sharp angles. Surface debris and aluminum shavings are then blown away.

[0120] Finally, the shell is subjected to surface oxidation, powder coating, and electroplating in sequence.

[0121] The deburring process is divided into two parts: one part is chamfering and deburring by a CNC machining center, and the other part is deburring by hand.

[0122] The CNC machining center performs chamfering and deburring on the following parts: connector face low-profile opening, inner cavity sidewall low-profile hole, fly rod groove bottom, isolation rib edge, and inner cavity low-profile groove end, respectively as follows: Figure 19 As shown in (a), (b), (c), (d), and (e).

[0123] Specifically, the processing technology for the low-profile connector is as follows:

[0124] 1. Use a center drill with a diameter of 5mm or greater, and use the center drill to chamfer in a circular motion.

[0125] 2. The length of the tool attachment must not exceed 5 to 7 times the diameter of the tool holder.

[0126] 3. The bottom depth of the chamfered surface is ≥1.5mm.

[0127] 4. Machining parameters: spindle speed 9600 rpm, feed rate 1200 mm / min.

[0128] The machining process for the low-profile orifice on the inner cavity sidewall is as follows:

[0129] 1. Use a dovetail cutter to chamfer the edges in a rounded manner;

[0130] 2. Machining parameters: spindle speed 3200 rpm, feed rate 200 mm / min.

[0131] The machining process for the bottom of the fly rod groove is as follows:

[0132] 1. Use a center drill with a diameter of 5mm or greater, and use the center drill to chamfer in a circular motion;

[0133] 2. The length of the tool attachment must not exceed 5 to 7 times the diameter of the tool holder;

[0134] 3. The bottom depth of the chamfered surface is ≥1.5mm;

[0135] 4. Machining parameters: spindle speed 9600 rpm, feed rate 1500 mm / min.

[0136] The processing technology for the edge of the isolation rib is as follows:

[0137] 1. Use a center drill with a diameter of 5mm or greater, and use the center drill to chamfer in a circular motion;
