TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of automobile rear axle processing, and particularly relates to a straightening device for a five-link rear axle housing. BACKGROUND
[0002] The five-link rear axle is a high-end suspension structure, which is connected with the vehicle body through a coil spring, a shock absorber and a trailing arm, so as to make the driving and riding stable and comfortable. However, there are many accessory parts on the five-link rear axle housing, and the accessory parts interfere with the fixture in the housing straightening process, so that most of the accessory parts can only be welded in the later process. However, the welding process will cause the two side arms and the rear axle ring to produce an angle, which will cause the end surface perpendicularity of the connecting flange of the rear axle housing to be poor, so that the vehicle is inclined outward, which affects the stability of the vehicle, and thus the rear axle housing needs to be straightened.
[0003] At present, in the traditional straightening device of the housing, only the V-shaped support with both ends fixed and the middle fixed pressure head are provided, which are only suitable for the rear axle housing product with few accessory parts. However, the five-link rear axle housing has many accessory parts, and thus the traditional housing straightening device cannot be used. SUMMARY
[0004] The present application aims at the deficiencies of the prior art, and provides a straightening device for a five-link rear axle housing, which is simple in structure and can avoid the interference between the fixture and the accessory parts on the rear axle housing.
[0005] The present application is achieved in the following manner:
[0006] A straightening device for a five-link rear axle housing comprises a straightening tool, two symmetrically arranged support seats for placing the rear axle housing, a support seat pressure head and a V-shaped support arranged on the support seat, a connecting rod and a guide rod arranged on the V-shaped support, a straightening tool arranged above the space between the two support seats, and an upper connecting plate and two symmetrically arranged upper pressure heads.
[0007] A through connecting hole is arranged in the center of the upper connecting plate, and two tracks are arranged on the lower end surface of the upper connecting plate, which are arranged in parallel on both sides of the connecting hole along the placing direction of the rear axle housing.
[0008] The upper pressure head is connected to the upper connecting plate by bolts and can be adjusted in position on the tracks.
[0009] A V-shaped groove is arranged on the contact end of the upper pressure head with the rear axle housing, which is used for matching the product structure.
[0010] The number of guide rods is two, which are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the connecting rod, and the V-shaped support and the two guide rods are integrally formed.
[0011] The support head is fixedly connected with the support base through bolts, and the outside of the support head is connected with a cylinder.
[0012] The connecting rod is provided with a threaded hole, and the connecting rod is fixedly connected with the V-shaped support through bolts, and the outside of the connecting rod is connected with a cylinder.
[0013] The cylinder is fixedly connected with the support base through bolts.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the present application are: a straightening device for a five-link rear axle housing is designed, the support head and the connecting rod are driven to extend and retract by the cylinder, when the cylinder is in a non-working state, the support head is retracted, and the V-shaped support is extended to support the rear axle housing and rotate to adjust to the position to be straightened; when the cylinder is in a working state, the cylinder is retracted, the support head is extended to insert into the inner hole of the rear axle housing as support, and the V-shaped support is retracted to avoid interference between the V-shaped support and the accessory parts on the rear axle housing. This set of straightening device is suitable for the rear axle housing products with more accessory parts, and can meet the straightening of various types of axle housings.
