Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of friction block machining technology, and in particular to a guide rail structure for friction block machining. Background Technology

[0002] Disc brake pads are a type of brake pad, also known as disc brake discs. Their function is to cause the brake pads to rub against the wheels when the brake is applied, so as to stop the wheels from rotating and achieve the purpose of deceleration or stopping. They are one of the important components that play a role in the stability and safety of automobile operation.

[0003] Disc brake friction blocks are mainly classified by their material into ceramic brake pads, semi-metallic brake pads, powder metallurgy brake pads, ceramic formula brake pads, carbon fiber brake pads, asbestos-free brake pads, mineral brake pads, synthetic brake pads, high carbon brake pads, etc. Most of them consist of gaskets, backing plates, interlayers, and friction materials.

[0004] Currently, with the development of industrial technology, in order to save and reduce labor costs, the degree of automation of equipment is constantly improving. The traditional manufacturing process of disc brake friction blocks is combined into a single production line. Generally, it requires multiple processes to complete. When grinding the friction material in the friction block, since the position of the boss on the steel back of different products is different, manual adjustment is still required when placing it on the guide rail of the integrated machine to ensure normal processing. This not only violates the concept of efficient and automated production, but also increases labor costs and is not conducive to production scheduling. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a guide rail structure for machining friction blocks.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A guide rail structure for machining friction blocks includes a supporting guide rail, which is installed on both sides of the inner wall of the machining table by fixing bolts, and lateral guide plates are installed on both sides of the upper end of the machining table. The supporting guide rail includes a first guide rail and a second guide rail.

[0008] In addition, a preferred structure is that the upper end of the processing table has a slot, lateral guide plates are installed on both sides of the slot, and a support guide rail is installed below the center of the slot.

[0009] In addition, in a preferred configuration, the first guide rail and the second guide rail are both installed on the inside of the processing table by fixing bolts, and limit grooves are provided on the inner walls of the first guide rail and the second guide rail.

[0010] In addition, the preferred structure is that the first guide rail and the second guide rail are each provided with multiple threaded holes, and a first forward and reverse adjustment bolt, a second forward and reverse adjustment bolt, a guide bolt and a fixing bolt are screwed into each threaded hole, wherein the guide bolt and the fixing bolt are respectively installed on the inner wall of the processing table.

[0011] Furthermore, in a preferred configuration, when the first forward and reverse adjustment bolt rotates clockwise, the first forward and reverse adjustment bolt drives one end of the first guide rail and the second guide rail to retract inward through the fixing nuts on both sides, that is, the gap between one end of the first guide rail and the second guide rail decreases, and vice versa.

[0012] Furthermore, in a preferred configuration, when the second forward and reverse adjusting bolt rotates clockwise, the second forward and reverse adjusting bolt causes the middle parts of the first guide rail and the second guide rail to contract inward through the fixing nuts on both sides, that is, the gap between the middle parts of the first guide rail and the second guide rail decreases, and vice versa.

[0013] Furthermore, in a preferred configuration, the ends of the first and second guide rails near the fixing bolts are fixed to one end of the interior of the processing table, and the ends of the first and second guide rails near the first positive and negative adjustment bolts are installed at the other end of the interior of the processing table.

[0014] In addition, a preferred structure is that the upper end of the processing table has a slot, and a second positive and negative adjustment bolt is provided directly below one end of the slot, and a support guide rail is installed on the second positive and negative adjustment bolt.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By adding two positive and negative adjusting bolts to the front of the support guide rail, the width can be adjusted according to different products, which facilitates the automatic feeding machine to easily place the processed products and avoids the steel back bosses of different products, ensuring the convenience of adjusting the guide rail. Furthermore, the limiting groove opened on the support guide rail allows the product to slide on the support guide rail and be automatically corrected, increasing the stability of the product in the support guide rail, making the cutting process more reliable, improving work efficiency, and reducing labor costs.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-4 A guide rail structure for machining friction blocks includes a support guide rail 3, which is installed on both sides of the inner wall of the machining table 1 by fixing bolts 6, and lateral guide plates 2 are installed on both sides of the upper end of the machining table 1. The support guide rail 3 includes a first guide rail 301 and a second guide rail 302.

[0023] The upper end of the processing table 1 has a slot, and side guide plates 2 are installed on both sides of the slot. A support guide rail 3 is installed below the middle of the slot. The support guide rail 3 is divided into a first guide rail 301 and a second guide rail 302. The A-direction part of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 is the front guide rail, and the B-direction part of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 is the original fixed guide rail. The front guide rail in the A-direction is equipped with a first positive and negative adjustment bolt 4 and a second positive and negative adjustment bolt 401 to realize the adjustment function. The original fixed guide rail in the B-direction is installed inside the processing table 1 by fixing bolts 6.

[0024] In addition, the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 are both installed on both sides inside the machining table 1 by fixing bolts 6, and limit grooves 304 are opened on the inner walls of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 to ensure that the product has an automatic correction function when sliding on the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302, so that the gap between the product boss and the guide rail is adjusted to a smaller size. This small gap between the product boss and the guide rail can increase the stability of the product in the guide rail and make the cutting process more reliable.

[0025] Furthermore, the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 are provided with multiple threaded holes 303, and a first forward and reverse adjustment bolt 4, a second forward and reverse adjustment bolt 401, a guide bolt 5, and a fixing bolt 6 are screwed onto each threaded hole 303. The guide bolt 5 and the fixing bolt 6 are respectively installed on the inner wall of the processing table 1. Since the processing table 1 is provided with a slot, the processing table 1 is divided into inner and outer parts. One end of the guide bolt 5 and the fixing bolt 6 is in the B direction and is installed inside the processing table 1, while one end of the first forward and reverse adjustment bolt 4 and the second forward and reverse adjustment bolt 401 is in the A direction and is installed on the outer opening.

[0026] At the same time, when the first forward and reverse adjustment bolt 4 is rotated clockwise, the first forward and reverse adjustment bolt 4 drives one end of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 to retract inward through the fixing nuts on both sides, that is, the gap between one end of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 is reduced, and vice versa. By adjusting the first forward and reverse adjustment bolt 4, the width can be adjusted according to different products, which makes it easy for the automatic feeding mechanism to place the processed products and avoid the steel back boss of the product.

[0027] Furthermore, when the second forward and reverse adjustment bolt 401 rotates clockwise, the second forward and reverse adjustment bolt 401 drives the middle part of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 to retract inward through the fixing nuts on both sides, that is, the gap between the middle parts of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 is reduced, and vice versa. By adjusting the second forward and reverse adjustment bolt 401, the width can be adjusted according to different products, which makes it easy for the automatic feeding mechanism to place the processed products and avoid the steel back boss of the product.

[0028] Furthermore, the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 are fixed at one end of the inside of the processing table 1 near the fixing bolt 6, and the end of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 near the first positive and negative adjustment bolt 4 is installed at the other end of the inside of the processing table 1.

[0029] Next, a slot is opened at the upper end of the processing table 1. A second forward and reverse adjustment bolt 401 is set directly below one end of the slot. A support guide rail 3 is installed on the second forward and reverse adjustment bolt 401. The support guide rail 3 includes a first guide rail 301 and a second guide rail 302. The A-direction portion of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 is the front guide rail. The B-direction portion of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 is the original fixed guide rail. The front guide rail in the A-direction is directly below the slot and is the visible part. The original fixed guide rail in the B-direction is installed inside the processing table 1 and is the invisible part. The dividing point of the front guide rail in the A-direction matches the lateral guide correction turning point of the side guide plate 2.

[0030] In this embodiment, the support guide rail 3 is fixedly installed inside the processing table 1 by fixing bolts 6 and guide bolts 5. The first forward and reverse adjustment bolts 4 and the second forward and reverse adjustment bolts 401 are respectively installed in the threaded holes 303 in the support guide rail 3. The support guide rail 3 is divided into a first guide rail 301 and a second guide rail 302. The A-direction portion of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 is the front guide rail, and the B-direction portion of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 is the original fixed guide rail. The first forward and reverse adjustment bolts 4 and the second forward and reverse adjustment bolts 401 are respectively installed on the A-direction front guide rail to realize the adjustment function. The A-direction front guide rail is directly below the slot on the processing table 1 and is the visible part. The dividing point of the A-direction front guide rail matches the lateral guide correction turning point of the lateral guide plate 2 on the processing table 1. The B-direction original fixed guide rail is installed inside the processing table 1 by fixing bolts 6 and is the invisible part.

[0031] When the width of the support rail 3 needs to be adjusted for different products, the first positive and negative adjusting bolt 4 is rotated, causing the first positive and negative adjusting bolt 4 to drive the A-direction section of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 to shrink inward through the fixing nuts on both sides. That is, the gap between one end of the first guide rail 301 and the second guide rail 302 is reduced, and vice versa. This allows the width to be adjusted according to different products by adjusting the first positive and negative adjusting bolt 4, which makes it easy for the automatic feeding mechanism to place the processed products and avoid the steel back boss of the product. This allows the product to have an automatic correction function when sliding from the guide rail part in the A direction to the fixed guide rail part in the B direction, so that the gap between the product boss and the guide rail can be adjusted to be smaller.

[0032] In this invention, by adding two positive and negative adjusting bolts to the front of the support guide rail 3, the width can be adjusted according to different products, which facilitates the automatic feeding machine to easily place the processed products and avoids the steel back bosses of different products, ensuring the convenience of adjusting the guide rail. The limiting groove 304 opened on the support guide rail 3 allows the product to slide on the support guide rail 3 and be automatically corrected, which increases the stability of the product in the support guide rail 3, makes the cutting process more reliable, improves work efficiency, and reduces labor costs.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
