[0032] The present application will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments. The following description is only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0033] Based on the structure of workpiece 1, and using the φ6H7 positioning hole on the workpiece as a reference, a gear-shaping test piece 13 is designed. The test piece 13 has two sets of positioning holes, φ6H7 and φ10H7 respectively. The position of the φ6H7 positioning hole on the test piece 13 on the workpiece 1 is determined by positioning pin A. The center of the φ10H7 positioning hole on the test piece 13 is on the (YY') axis of the workpiece 1. After the position of the gear-shaping test piece 13 is determined, it is fixed to the workpiece 1 by a four-jaw clamping plate 16 and four screws. Two positioning pins B14 are installed in the φ10H7 positioning holes on the gear-shaping test piece 13.
[0034] After the gear shaping test piece 13 is installed, align the center line of the locating pin B14 (φ10h7) with the X-axis of the gear shaping machine. This confirms the angular orientation of the workpiece 1 and that the axis of the workpiece 1 (YY') is parallel to the X-axis of the gear shaping machine. The gear shaping machine first processes the internal splines on the gear shaping test piece 13. A coordinate measuring machine is used to measure the symmetry of the internal splines on the gear shaping test piece 13. Based on the symmetry measurement, the rotation angle of the gear shaping tool is calculated. The tool angle is adjusted, and the gear shaping test piece 13 is processed until the symmetry meets the requirements of the workpiece 1. Only then can the spline machining of the workpiece 1 begin.
[0035] 1. Align the workpiece 1 to the rotation center of the gear hobbing machine, ensuring the runout is no more than 0.02mm, and use the clamping mechanism 2 to fix the workpiece 1.
[0036] 2. The position of the gear shaping test piece 13 on the workpiece 1 is determined by the positioning pin 6A (φ6h7), and the gear shaping test piece 13 is fixed by the four-jaw clamping plate 16;
[0037] 3. Align the two locating pins B14 (φ10h7) on the gear shaping test piece 13 so that the line connecting the centers of the two locating pins is parallel to the X-axis of the machine tool with an error of no more than 0.01mm. The reference conversion is achieved through the two sets of locating holes on the gear shaping test piece 13, and the parallelism between the reference (YY`) of the workpiece 1 and the X-axis of the gear shaping machine tool can be confirmed.
[0038] 4. Install the gear hobbing tool on the machine tool, confirm and record the tool installation angle C1 value;
[0039] 5. Align the two locating pins B14 (φ10h7) on the gear shaping test piece 13. The line connecting the centers of the two locating pins should be parallel to the X-axis of the machine tool with an error of no more than 0.01mm. The reference conversion can be achieved through the two sets of locating holes on the gear shaping test piece 13. The parallelism between the reference (YY`) of the workpiece 1 and the X-axis of the gear shaping machine tool can be confirmed.
[0040] 6. When the tool angle is at C1, machine the spline inside the gear shaping test piece 13;
[0041] 7、After the gear shaping test piece 13 is processed, the three-coordinate equipment is used to measure the symmetry of the first tooth and the two positioning pins B14 (φ10h7), and the measurement results are SCN1 and SCN2.
[0042] 8、When the measurement results meet the drawing requirements, the spline processing of the processed workpiece can be performed, and when the measurement results do not meet the drawing requirements: the tool rotation angle θ is calculated according to the measurement results (SCN1 and SCN2), and the calculation formula is θ = arctan {(the positive value in SCN-the negative value in SCN) / 2R2}. If SCN1 is positive, the tool is counterclockwise rotated by θ degrees, and if SCN1 is negative, the tool is clockwise rotated by θ degrees. The tool rotation angle θ is compensated into the gear shaping tool angle of the machine tool, and the original tool angle C1 value ± tool rotation angle θ is reinstalled and the gear shaping test piece 13 is processed.
[0043] Until the symmetry of the first tooth of the gear shaping test piece 13 and the two positioning pins B14 (φ10h7) meets the requirements.
[0044] Calculation formula: θ = arctan {(the positive value in SCN-the negative value in SCN) / 2R2}
