[0002] The sealing element air valve is die-pressed, and the sealing surface end is composed of a first metal part, a non-metal part and a second metal part from outside to inside. The non-metal part in the middle for sealing is die-pressed. Since the product has high sealing performance requirements, the sealing leakage rate of the sealing pair is required to be less than or equal to 10 - 5 Pa.m 3 / s. Therefore, the sealing surface roughness of the sealing element air valve is required to be high, and the part needs to be checked under a 10 times microscope to be free of excess material.

[0004] The single metal processing tool is difficult to ensure that the roughness of the non-metal sealing surface meets the requirements, the single gem turning tool has a fast tool wear and a high cost of the part, and the metal iron chips generated in the current processing method are embedded in the non-metal surface, and the excess material is difficult to meet the requirements. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the application is to provide a processing method for a die-pressed air valve sealing surface, so that the roughness of the non-metal sealing surface and the performance index of the part meet the requirements.

[0034] The application will be described below Figures 1-5 The application will be described below

[0035] Embodiment 1

[0036] A mold pressing air valve sealing surface processing method, comprising the following steps:

[0037] S1 cutter selection: different cutters are selected when processing the sealing end surface of the air valve, a gem turning tool is selected when processing the sealing surface of the non-metallic part 3, and a metal processing cutter is selected when processing the first metal part 1 and the second metal part 2. After the cutter is selected, the installation and setting of the cutter are completed. When setting the cutter, the height of the cutting edge of the gem turning tool for processing the non-metallic part 3 and the metal processing cutter for processing the metal part should be consistent. It can ensure that the entire surface of the non-metallic sealing end surface is flush.

[0038] S2 part processing: the non-metallic part 3 is processed by a gem turning tool, and the first metal part 1 and the second metal part 2 are processed by a metal processing cutter.

[0039] S3 the structure of the sealing pair is as shown in Figure 2 The position of the sealing ring band is φ0.9mm-φ1.2mm, and the sealing pair ring band formed by the non-metallic part 3 filled by mold pressing and the sealing surface of the valve seat 4 should not have any defects that affect sealing within ±0.2mm (i.e. φ0.7mm-φ1.4mm). Figure 2

[0040] S3 non-metallic surface processing tool path: from the junction line between the first metal part 1 and the non-metallic part 3, the tool is fed from the position of the non-metallic part 3 side, and the specific position of the tool is Figure 3 ​φ2.6, the non-metallic part is turned outwards by a gem tool, and the tool is withdrawn at the position where the non-metallic part 3 and the second metal part 2 meet, the specific position is Figure 3 φ0.6. The tool path of the non-metallic surface is as shown in Figure 3 the arrow directions one, two and three. In order to ensure that the roughness of the sealing surface of the non-metallic part 3 is Ra0.2, the cutting depth is 0.03mm and the feed is 0.01mm in the non-metal processing of S3, and the processing speed of the lathe is 2800r / min, so that the temperature of the tool does not change the performance of the non-metallic sealing surface.

[0041] The tool path of the first metal part 1 in S4 is: the tool is re-entered from the initial tool entering position of the non-metal surface in S3, and the specific position is Figure 4 φ2.5, the first metal part 1 is turned outwards by a metal tool, and the tool path of the first metal part 1 is as shown in Figure 4 the arrow directions four and five.

[0042] The tool path of the second metal part 2 in S5 is: the tool is re-entered from the tool withdrawing position of the non-metal surface in S3, and the specific position is Figure 5 φ0.65, the second metal part 2 is turned inwards by a metal tool, and the tool path of the second metal part 2 is as shown in Figure 5 the arrow directions six and seven.

[0043] S6: Excess removal: When the first metal part 1 is processed, the program is compiled to increase the fillet, which can remove the excess on the circumference, and the excess at the intersection of the square and the sealing surface is removed manually, so that the iron filings generated during processing are outside the first metal part 1, which is convenient for removal.

[0044] After the excess removal is completed, the inspection is carried out, which includes:

[0045] Excess inspection: no excess is found under 10 times microscope; roughness detection: the roughness of the non-metallic sealing surface is required to be Ra0.2, and the roughness of the metal surface flush with the non-metallic sealing surface is required to be Ra3.2.

[0046] The structure of the air valve is as shown in Figure 1As shown, the air valve includes a first metal part 1 and a second metal part 2, the first metal part 1 and the second metal part 2 are assembled by press fitting to form an annular groove between the first metal part 1 and the second metal part 2, and a non-metal part 3 is filled in the annular groove by die pressing. The air valve has an outer dimension of an outer diameter of 5 mm x a length of 5 mm, and the diameter of the second metal part is 0.5 mm. The design requires that the sealing surface end of the air valve is a plane, and the sealing surface end is from outside to inside of a metal material, a non-metal material and a metal material. The roughness requirement of the non-metal sealing surface is Ra0.2, and the roughness requirement of the metal surface flush with the non-metal sealing surface is Ra3.2. Secondly, the valve has high sealing requirement, and the helium detection requirement of the sealing leakage rate of the sealing pair is less than or equal to 10 -5 Pa.m 3 / s, so the excess control requirement is also high, and the parts in the valve cavity need to be checked under a 10 times microscope to be free of excess. Because the size of the part is small, the excess generated during machining, such as near the non-metal sealing part, is not easy to operate when removed, and the sealing surface is easily damaged.

[0047] Currently, the following several conventional machining methods are commonly used to machine the sealing surface of the air valve: (1) the entire sealing surface end is machined from outside to inside by a metal machining tool; (2) the entire sealing surface is machined from outside to inside by a gem turning tool; (3) the entire sealing surface is machined by grinding. The three methods have the following defects: (1) the sealing surface is composed of the first metal part 1, the second metal part 2 and the non-metal part 3, the metal machining tool is used to machine the entire sealing surface, and the metal machining tool cannot meet the roughness requirement Ra0.2 of the non-metal part 3 sealing surface in the face of different regions of the sealing surface. (2) the gem turning tool is used to machine the entire sealing surface, the tool wears quickly, and the gem turning tool is relatively expensive, so the cost is high. (3) during grinding, the grinding paste is embedded in the non-metal sealing surface, and the embedded grinding paste affects the sealing performance of the sealing pair.

[0048] The die pressing air valve sealing surface machining method adopted by the present application is that two tools are used to machine different regions of the sealing surface, the gem turning tool can meet the high precision requirement Ra0.2 at a cutting depth of 0.03 mm, a feed amount of 0.01 mm and a rotating speed of 2800 r / min, and the problem of fast wear of the gem turning tool machining the metal sealing surface is avoided. Secondly, the tool path is adjusted, the non-metal part 3 is machined by the gem turning tool first, and then the first metal part 1 and the second metal part 2 are machined by the metal machining tool, so that the iron filings generated during machining are outside the first metal part 1, and are easy to remove.

[0049] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not used to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various changes and modifications. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
