Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of machining, and more specifically to a machining apparatus for viscous damper components. Background Technology

[0002] Viscous dampers are vibration reduction devices in the construction industry. These devices typically consist of a piston rod, a cylinder, and an internal medium. Existing cylinders are cut from seamless steel pipes and require subsequent processes such as boring, external circumferential turning, and grinding.

[0003] The outer circumferential turning and grinding are mostly processed using existing lathes. However, most of the current lathes are general-purpose equipment. During the specific processing, the cylinder body is fixed by the inner support chuck on the lathe and then rotated for machining. The viscous damper is relatively large, and the existing equipment lacks customized loading and unloading equipment for the cylinder body processing of the viscous damper. This means that the existing traditional hoisting equipment is needed to hoist it to a suitable position and then fix it on the lathe, which makes the installation process quite cumbersome.

[0004] In addition, a lot of shavings will fall off the equipment during cylinder turning and grinding, especially when mass production is carried out. The shavings need to be cleaned regularly, which is difficult and affects the processing cycle. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention discloses a processing apparatus for viscous damper components to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] A processing apparatus for viscous damper components includes a machine tool equipped with a forward-extending internal support chuck. The apparatus further includes a base, a lifting device, a support assembly, a chip removal device, and a clamping device. The base has a base plate and an ejector block. The lifting device is located below the base and is used to drive the base plate and ejector block to rise and fall. A loading block and an unloading block are fixedly connected to the base plate. The loading block is located between the ejector block and the base plate. The loading block has a loading channel with an opening for the ejector block to rise and fall. The unloading block is located on the front side of the base plate and has an unloading channel.

[0007] Two support components are arranged side by side on the base plate. The support components are used to support the cylinder body conveyed from the feeding channel. When the base plate rises, the support component closer to the unloading channel will be lower than the support component farther away from the unloading channel, so that the cylinder body rolls into the unloading channel.

[0008] The chip removal device is located on the base plate, and the chip removal device collects the waste chips that fall onto the base plate as it descends.

[0009] The machine tool is provided on one side with a support assembly, and the clamping device is provided on the other side of the two support assemblies, used to clamp the cylinder on the support assembly onto the inner support chuck.

[0010] Preferably, the lifting device includes a support rod and a lifting hydraulic cylinder. The bottom of the base plate and the top block are both fixedly connected to the support rod. The support rod is slidably connected to the base. The lifting hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the bottom of the base, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to a support plate. The support plate is fixedly connected to the support rod.

[0011] Preferably, the support assembly includes a fixed frame, a support roller is rotatably connected inside the fixed frame, a tube is fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the fixed frame, a spring is provided inside the tube, a top rod is provided below the spring and slidably connected to the tube, a cover is provided at the bottom of the tube to limit the top rod, and the top rod is fixedly connected to the base plate.

[0012] Preferably, the tops of the feeding block, the ejection block, and the unloading block are all located on an inclined surface that is lower in the front and higher in the back. The unloading block has a rectangular opening, and the inclined surface of the unloading block extends to the support roller on one side of itself.

[0013] Preferably, the chip removal device includes a waste drawer, a mounting frame, and a rack. The waste drawer is pull-out and connected to a base on the front side of a rectangular opening. The mounting frame is fixedly connected to a base plate. Several conveying rollers are rotatably connected inside the mounting frame. A conveying line is sleeved on the outside of each conveying roller. The foremost conveying roller passes through the rectangular opening, and gears are fixedly connected to both sides of it via one-way bearings. Racks are fixedly connected to unloading blocks on both sides of the rectangular opening. The racks mesh with the gears. When the gears move downwards, the racks drive the gears to rotate, thereby causing the conveying line to transport the waste chips into the waste drawer. A baffle is also provided on the back of the mounting frame.

[0014] Preferably, the clamping device includes a clamping hydraulic cylinder and a conical block, the conical block being rotatably connected to the output shaft of the clamping hydraulic cylinder, and the clamping hydraulic cylinder being fixedly connected to the base.

[0015] The advantages of this invention are:

[0016] The lifting device simultaneously drives the ejector block and the base plate to rise and fall. When rising, the cylinder to be processed can be ejected from the feeding channel onto the feeding block to wait for feeding. It can also send the cylinder that has been processed on the support assembly to the unloading block for unloading. When falling, the cylinder to be processed can be sent to the support assembly for feeding.

[0017] In addition, a chip removal device is added, which can use the descent of the base plate to drive the conveyor line forward, ensuring that the falling chips can be automatically transported forward to the waste drawer, which is convenient for the later cleaning of chips.

[0026] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a viscous damper component processing device includes a machine tool 1, which is equipped with an internal support chuck 11 that can extend forward. It also includes a base 2, a lifting device 3, a support assembly 4, a chip removal device 5, and a clamping device 6. The base 2 is provided with a base plate 7 and an ejector block 8. The lifting device 3 is located below the base 2 and is used to drive the base plate 7 and the ejector block 8 to lift. The base plate 7 is fixedly connected with a loading block 9 and an unloading block 10. The loading block 9 is located between the ejector block 8 and the base plate 7. The loading block 9 is provided with a loading channel 91 and an opening for the ejector block 8 to lift. The unloading block 10 is located on the front side of the base plate 7 and is provided with an unloading channel 101.

[0028] Two support components 4 are arranged side by side on the base plate 7. The support components 4 are used to support the cylinder body conveyed from the feeding channel 91. When the base plate 7 rises, the support component 4 near the unloading channel 101 will be lower than the support component 4 far away from the unloading channel 101, so that the cylinder body rolls into the unloading channel 101.

[0029] The chip removal device 5 is located on the base plate 7. As the base plate 7 descends, the chip removal device 5 collects the waste chips that fall onto the base plate 7.

[0030] The machine tool 1 has a support assembly 4 on one side, and a clamping device 6 is located on the other side of the two support assemblies 4, which is used to clamp the cylinder on the support assembly 4 onto the inner support chuck 11.

[0031] In this embodiment, the lifting device 3 includes a support rod 31 and a lifting hydraulic cylinder 32. The bottom of the base plate 7 and the bottom of the ejector block 8 are both fixedly connected to the support rod 31. The support rod 31 is slidably connected to the base 2. The lifting hydraulic cylinder 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the base 2, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to a support plate 33. The support plate 33 is fixedly connected to the support rod 31.

[0032] In this embodiment, the support assembly 4 includes a fixed frame 41, a support roller 42 is rotatably connected inside the fixed frame 41, a tube 43 is fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the fixed frame 41, a spring 44 is provided inside the tube 43, a top rod 45 is provided below the spring 44 and slidably connected to the tube 43, a cover 46 is provided at the bottom of the tube 43 to limit the top rod 45, and the top rod 45 is fixedly connected to the base plate 7.

[0033] In this embodiment, the tops of the feeding block 9, the ejection block 8, and the unloading block 10 are all located on an inclined surface that is lower in the front and higher in the back. The unloading block 10 is provided with a rectangular opening 102. The inclined surface of the unloading block 10 also extends to the support roller 42 on one side of itself, which is used to prevent the support roller 42 from moving upward normally.

[0034] In this embodiment, the chip removal device 5 includes a waste drawer 51, a mounting frame 52, and a rack 53. The waste drawer 51 is pull-out and connected to the base 2 on the front side of the rectangular opening 102. The mounting frame 52 is fixedly connected to the base plate 7. Several conveying rollers 54 are rotatably connected inside the mounting frame 52. A conveying line 55 is sleeved on the outside of the conveying rollers 54. The foremost conveying roller 54 passes through the rectangular opening 102, and gears 56 are fixedly connected to both sides of it through one-way bearings. Racks 53 are fixedly connected to the unloading block 10 on both sides of the rectangular opening 102. The racks 53 mesh with the gears 56. When the gears 56 move downward, the racks 53 can drive the gears 56 to rotate, thereby causing the conveying line 55 to convey the waste chips into the waste drawer 51. A baffle 57 is also provided on the back of the mounting frame 52.

[0035] In this embodiment, the clamping device 6 includes a clamping hydraulic cylinder 61 and a conical block 62. The conical block 62 is rotatably connected to the output shaft of the clamping hydraulic cylinder 61, and the clamping hydraulic cylinder 61 is fixedly connected to the base 2.

[0036] Working process and its principle:

[0037] The cylinder body is pre-stored in the feeding channel 91. When the cylinder body is processed, the output shaft of the lifting hydraulic cylinder 32 extends, causing the support plate 33 and the support rod 31 to rise. The support rod 31 pushes the bottom plate 7 and the ejector block 8 to rise.

[0038] When the ejector block 8 rises, it can eject the cylinder in the feeding channel 91 and roll it onto the inclined surface of the feeding block 9. Since the baffle 57 also rises when the ejector block 8 rises, the baffle 57 can block the cylinder on the feeding block 9.

[0039] Only when the ejector block 8 and the bottom plate 7 move down, and the baffle 57 moves down, can the cylinder body slide from the feed block 9 over the top of the baffle 57 onto the two support rollers 42.

[0040] Subsequently, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 61 extends, the conical block 62 is inserted into the cylinder body, and the inner support chuck 11 also extends forward and is inserted into the cylinder body. The inner support chuck 11 supports the cylinder body and interacts with the conical block 62 to clamp and fix the cylinder body. Then the cylinder body can be rotated for turning or grinding.

[0041] Most of the waste chips generated during the cylinder turning and grinding process fall onto conveyor line 55.

[0042] After turning and grinding, the conical block 62 and the inner support chuck 11 are reset, and the base plate 7 and the ejector block 8 move upward again. The upward movement of the base plate 7 pushes the ejector rod 45 upward. Due to the presence of the spring 44, the support roller 42 can move upward normally. However, the support roller 42 located below the inclined surface of the unloading block 10 cannot continue to move upward when it encounters the inclined surface of the unloading block 10. The spring 44 in the support assembly 4 is compressed, and the other support roller 42 can move upward normally without obstruction. This results in the support roller 42 that can move upward pushing the cylinder towards the unloading channel 101. The side of the inclined surface of the unloading block 10 close to the cylinder is chamfered so that the cylinder can enter the unloading channel 101 more smoothly. The cylinder can roll into the unloading channel 101 to achieve unloading.

[0043] When the base plate 7 rises, it can drive the mounting frame 52 to move upwards as well, and the conveyor line 55 also moves upwards. Although the gear 56 can be driven normally by the rack 53 at this time, the direction of rotation of the gear 56 at this time makes the inner and outer rings of the one-way bearing in a state of free rotation. Therefore, the rotation direction of the gear 56 at this time cannot drive the conveyor roller 54 to rotate.

[0044] When the base plate 7 moves down to its reset position, the gear 56 rotates in the opposite direction. At this time, the inner and outer rings of the one-way bearing are locked, allowing the gear 56 to drive the conveyor roller 54 to rotate normally. The conveyor line 55 also rotates accordingly, transporting the fallen waste material bins and drawers towards them. Each time the base plate 7 moves down, it transports a certain distance towards the drawers, preventing excessive accumulation of waste material on the conveyor line 55. The waste material drawer can be pulled out for easy cleaning.

[0045] As is known from common technical knowledge, this invention can be implemented through other embodiments that do not depart from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the disclosed embodiments described above are merely illustrative in all respects and are not the only ones. All modifications within the scope of this invention or its equivalents are included in this invention.
