Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of shaft processing equipment, and in particular to a shaft keyway processing device and a processing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Conventional technology in this field relates to a keyway processing method for shaft parts, which method includes the following steps: first, the shaft parts are fixed and clamped; second, a deep hole is drilled or milled on the shaft using a drill or a milling cutter, and the depth of the deep hole matches the final depth of the keyway; then, based on the deep hole, the shape of the keyway is formed by transverse milling by replacing multiple cutter heads one by one.

[0003] This traditional processing method can indeed realize the processing of keyways. Multiple clamping and tool settings will lead to cumulative errors, affecting the final keyway processing accuracy. If a single cutter head is used to process the keyway, the error can be relatively reduced and the accuracy can be improved. How to use a cutter head to realize the processing of shaft keyways is urgently needed. To this end, we propose a shaft keyway processing device and a processing method thereof. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Refer to the attached Figure 1-7A shaft keyway processing device comprises a shell 1, a mounting plate 14 is mounted on the shell 1, a rotatable cylindrical gear 2 is mounted between the shells 1, a rotating rod composed of a rotating rod 4 and a screw rod 41 is mounted between the mounting plate 14 and the shell 1, the rotating rod 4 and the screw rod 41 are fixedly connected, the ends of the screw rod 41 are connected to a slider 12 and a processing cutter head 13 in sequence, the outside of the shell 1 is connected to a slide rail 11 for the slider 12 to slide, the cutter head 13 is connected to the slider 12, a rotating toothed disc 42 meshing with the cylindrical gear 2 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating rod 4, a screw toothed disc 43 is sleeved on the screw rod 41, a rotating column 44 is fixedly connected to the screw toothed disc 43 and is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the shell 1, the rotating column 44 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 41, and a steering unit for changing the direction of the screw toothed disc 43 is sleeved on the cylindrical gear 2.

[0032] In this embodiment, the steering unit includes a steering plate 3 movably sleeved on the rotating shaft of the cylindrical gear 2 and a first steering gear 31 fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft of the cylindrical gear 2. The radius of the first steering gear 31 is smaller than the radius of the cylindrical gear 2. The steering plate 3 is also equipped with a second steering gear 32 and a third steering gear 33 that mesh with the first steering gear 31. The second steering gear 32 and the third steering gear 33 are fixed on the steering plate 3 through a rotating shaft. The steering plate 3 is also equipped with a fourth steering gear 34 that meshes with the third steering gear 33. When the steering plate 3 rotates, the fourth steering gear 34 meshes with the screw gear disc 43.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first steering gear 31, the third steering gear 33, and the fourth steering gear 34 have the same gear radius, and the cylindrical gear 2, the rotating toothed disc 42, and the screw toothed disc 43 have the same radius.

[0034] Furthermore, the bottom of the steering unit is an arc-shaped structure, and a steering gear for driving the steering unit to rotate is installed on the arc-shaped surface.

[0035] Furthermore, a linkage rotating rod 5 for driving the steering gear is connected between the mounting plate 14 and the housing 1, and a linkage gear 51 and a one-way ratchet 52 are fixedly sleeved on the linkage rotating rod 5. The one-way ratchet 52 can control the rotation direction of the linkage rotating rod 5. When the one-way ratchet 52 engages with the rotating gear plate 42 rotating counterclockwise, the one-way ratchet 52 drives the linkage rotating rod 5 to rotate clockwise.

[0036] Furthermore, the linkage gear 51 is meshed with the steering gear of the steering plate 3 , and the length of the one-way ratchet 52 is greater than the length of the processed keyway, so that the one-way ratchet 52 can mesh with the rotating gear disc 42 .

[0037] In this embodiment, a belt pulley 21 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft of the cylindrical gear 2. The belt pulley 21 is driven by a motor which is fixed in the housing 1 (not shown in the figure).

[0038] A method for machining a keyway of a shaft, comprising:

[0039] Step 1: Fix the shaft on the mounting table and position the area to be processed of the shaft and the cutter head;

[0040] Step 2: Start the motor, the motor synchronously drives the cylindrical gear 2 to rotate counterclockwise, and at the same time drives the second steering gear 32 and the rotating toothed disc 42 to rotate clockwise, the second steering gear 32 and the screw toothed disc 43 are meshed, that is, the screw toothed disc 43 is driven to rotate counterclockwise, and the rotating toothed disc 42 moves relatively quickly toward the direction of the mounting plate 14 under the reverse rotation of the screw toothed disc 43. At the same time, the mounting table cooperates with the sliding and lifting of the screw 41 to relatively quickly process the size of the shallow keyway on the cylindrical surface on the shaft. At this time, the rotating toothed disc 42 is meshed with the one-way ratchet 52, and the one-way ratchet 52 rotates with the rotating toothed disc 42, and the one-way ratchet 52 will not drive the linkage rotating rod 5 to rotate;

[0041] Step 3: The motor rotates in the opposite direction, driving the cylindrical gear 2 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the rotating toothed disc 42 rotates counterclockwise, and the screw toothed disc 43 is stationary. The mounting platform cooperates with the sliding and lifting of the screw 41. The screw 41 is pushed by the rotating toothed disc 42 and returns relatively slowly to the original path, thereby improving its processing accuracy. At the same time, the rotating toothed disc 42 is meshed with the one-way ratchet 52, driving the one-way ratchet 52 and the linkage gear 51 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the linkage gear 51 is meshed with the steering gear of the steering plate 3, driving the steering plate 3 to rotate counterclockwise until the fourth steering gear 34 is meshed with the screw toothed disc 43. At this time, the rotating toothed disc 42 and the screw toothed disc 43 rotate counterclockwise. Since the rotation speed of the rotating toothed disc 42 is less than that of the screw toothed disc 43, the movement speed of the screw 41 is further slowed down, thereby further improving its processing accuracy.
