[0012] The present invention provides a working method of a cold drilling auxiliary device for thermoplastic materials, which is specifically as follows:

[0013] Step 1: Install the tank body on the workbench of the drilling machine.

[0014] Step 2: Remove the top cover, place the thermoplastic workpiece on the drilling base plate, make the position of the hole to be drilled on the thermoplastic workpiece be located at the second position of the circular hole, and install the top cover to its original position; then the horizontal translation mechanism drives the drilling base plate to drive the thermoplastic workpiece to translate, so that the thermoplastic workpiece is translated to directly below the two U-shaped clamping plates; then the synchronous lifting mechanism drives the two U-shaped clamping plates to move downward synchronously, so that the two U-shaped clamping plates contact the thermoplastic workpiece, clamp the thermoplastic workpiece with the drilling base plate, and each stress sheet detects that the positive pressure of the corresponding U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic workpiece is within the preset pressure range, thereby completing the clamping of the thermoplastic workpiece.

[0015] Step 3. Open the inlet and outlet of the liquid nitrogen machine, and the hydraulic pump on the liquid nitrogen machine transports the liquid nitrogen from the liquid nitrogen machine through the inlet pipeline to the cooling pipeline, and from the cooling pipeline through the outlet pipeline and the heat exchanger back to the liquid nitrogen machine. At the same time, the thermal compensation resistor is heated to heat the liquid nitrogen in the inlet pipeline of the temperature compensation bin, so that the temperature of the liquid nitrogen entering the cooling pipeline changes to a preset temperature, and the liquid nitrogen in the cooling pipeline exchanges heat with the air in the bin body, thereby lowering the temperature inside the bin body to the preset temperature; then the drilling machine drives the drill bit to move, so that the drill bit enters the bin body from the circular hole 1, and drills the position to be drilled of the thermoplastic material workpiece.

[0016] Step 4. After the drilling work is completed, the drilling machine drives the drill bit to move to its original position, the hydraulic pump on the liquid nitrogen machine stops working, the thermal compensation resistor stops heating, and the top cover is removed. Then the synchronous lifting mechanism drives the two U-shaped clamping plates to move up to the initial position synchronously, and then the horizontal translation mechanism drives the drilling substrate to drive the thermoplastic workpiece to move horizontally, so that the drilling substrate moves horizontally to the initial position, the thermoplastic workpiece that has completed the drilling process is taken out, and the top cover is installed to its original position, thereby completing the drilling work of the thermoplastic workpiece.

[0017] Preferably, the preset pressure range is obtained through a drilling experiment, the process being:

[0018] S1. The U-shaped clamping plate exerts a positive pressure perpendicular to the surface of the thermoplastic workpiece on the thermoplastic workpiece. The positive pressure is the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic workpiece. The clamping stress failure equation of the thermoplastic workpiece during non-drilling processing is:

[0019]

[0020] Where σ is the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic workpiece during non-drilling processing, X 2t and X 2c It is the longitudinal tensile strength and longitudinal compressive strength of thermoplastic material workpiece;

[0021] The minimum value of σ obtained by formula (1) is min That is, the minimum clamping stress when the U-shaped clamping plate clamps the thermoplastic workpiece and causes the thermoplastic workpiece to fail during the non-drilling process. The clamping stress range of the U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic workpiece when it does not damage the thermoplastic workpiece during the non-drilling process is (0, σ min ), and in order to make the U-shaped clamping plate clamp the thermoplastic workpiece, it is assumed that the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic workpiece during the non-drilling process is in the interval U1=[0.7σ min ,0.9σ min ] within the scope of;

[0022] S2. Conduct multiple drilling experiments using a thermoplastic workpiece sample under the same processing parameters. Before each drilling experiment, record the clamping stress σ1 of the U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic workpiece sample, and σ1 is within the range of interval U1. During each drilling experiment, record the change in the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic workpiece sample during the drilling process in real time. After each drilling experiment, take the clamping stress peak value σ2 of the corresponding clamping stress change, and calculate the vibration stress coefficient β of the thermoplastic workpiece sample during the drilling process, where β = σ1 / σ2. After completing each drilling experiment, calculate the average value β0 of the vibration stress coefficient for each drilling experiment.

[0023] S3. The failure equation of the clamping pressure of thermoplastic workpiece under drilling processing is:

[0024]

[0025] Wherein, σ0 is the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic material workpiece during drilling;

[0026] The minimum value σ0 obtained by formula (2) is 0min That is, the minimum clamping stress when the U-shaped clamping plate clamps the thermoplastic workpiece and causes the thermoplastic workpiece to fail during the drilling process. The clamping stress range of the U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic workpiece when the thermoplastic workpiece is not damaged during the drilling process is (0, σ 0min ), and in order to make the U-shaped clamping plate clamp the thermoplastic material workpiece, it is assumed that the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic material workpiece during the drilling process is in the interval U2=[0.7σ 0min ,0.9σ 0min ], the interval U2 is the preset pressure range of the U-shaped clamping plate on the thermoplastic material workpiece under the drilling processing state.

[0027] Preferably, the preset temperature in the chamber is controlled by changing the heating power of the compensation thermal resistor and the flow rate of the liquid nitrogen in the inlet pipe.

[0028]

[0029] Where T is the preset temperature inside the chamber, that is, the temperature when the liquid nitrogen flows into the cooling pipe, T0 is the temperature of the liquid nitrogen when it is in the liquid nitrogen machine, P is the heating power of the compensation thermal resistor, c is the specific heat capacity of liquid nitrogen, ρ is the density of liquid nitrogen, v is the flow rate of liquid nitrogen in the inlet pipe, and A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the inlet pipe;

[0030] Furthermore, considering the influence of the temperature difference between the liquid nitrogen in the liquid nitrogen machine and the cooling pipe and the heat exchange effect of the circular hole pair, as well as the influence of room temperature on the thermal insulation effect of the thermal insulation coating, the heat compensation coefficient λ and the heat exchange compensation heat power per unit time p are introduced, and

[0031] p=ε*d*ΔT

[0032] Where ε is the thermal conductivity of the thermal insulation coating, d is the thickness of the thermal insulation coating, and ΔT is the difference between the room temperature and the preset temperature inside the chamber;

[0033] but

[0034]

[0035] The value of λ is related to the temperature difference ΔT'=T-T0. When 0≤ΔT'≤30, λ=0.97; when 30<ΔT'≤70, λ=0.93; when 70<ΔT'≤100, λ=0.88; when ΔT'>100, λ=0.82.

[0036] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0037] 1. The present invention can achieve the formation of a low-temperature environment required for drilling thermoplastic workpieces, and can realize auxiliary drilling of thermoplastic workpieces in a low-temperature environment, avoiding deformation of the processed holes caused by the drilling heat generated during the drilling process, which affects the fixing effect. The operation method of the present invention is simple and the production cost is low. Specifically, the present invention allows liquid nitrogen from the liquid nitrogen machine to flow through an inlet pipe into a cooling pipeline fixed on the inner wall of the silo, and then from the cooling pipeline back to the liquid nitrogen machine through an outlet pipe, so that the liquid nitrogen circulates in the liquid nitrogen machine, the inlet pipe, the cooling pipeline and the outlet pipe, and the liquid nitrogen in the cooling pipeline exchanges heat with the air in the silo, so that the temperature in the silo drops, thereby achieving the formation of a low-temperature environment, and the low-temperature environment is relatively easy to maintain. The drilling machine drives the drill bit to enter through the circular hole opened on the top cover, and drills a thermoplastic material workpiece in the silo that is pressed on the drilling base plate by two U-shaped clamping plates, thereby achieving auxiliary drilling processing of thermoplastic materials in a low-temperature environment. Furthermore, the present invention heats the liquid nitrogen in the inlet pipeline of the temperature compensation chamber through a compensating thermal resistor in the temperature compensation chamber, so that the temperature of the liquid nitrogen entering the cooling pipeline changes to a preset temperature. By changing the flow rate of the liquid nitrogen in the inlet pipeline and the heating power of the compensating thermal resistor, the temperature in the silo can be regulated, thereby achieving auxiliary drilling processing of thermoplastic materials under different low-temperature environments.

[0038] 2. Based on the thermal history principle of thermoplastic materials, the present invention utilizes the characteristic that the material strength of thermoplastic materials first decreases, then increases, and then decreases again after thermal cycling. The temperature in the bin is cycled between high and low temperatures within a preset temperature range. By controlling the cycle temperature difference, cycle period, and number of cycles, the strength of the thermoplastic workpiece can be controlled, thereby achieving strength control of the thermoplastic workpiece as needed.

[0039] 3. In the present invention, the two U-shaped clamping plates are driven to descend by a synchronous lifting mechanism provided in the bin body, so that the two U-shaped clamping plates press the thermoplastic workpiece onto the drilling base plate, thereby achieving the clamping of the thermoplastic workpiece, and the positive pressure of the U-shaped clamping plates on the thermoplastic workpiece is detected by the stress plate, so that the positive pressure of the U-shaped clamping plates on the thermoplastic workpiece is within a preset pressure range, thereby enabling the U-shaped clamping plates to clamp the thermoplastic workpiece without damaging the thermoplastic workpiece, thereby avoiding the failure of the thermoplastic workpiece under the vibration of the drilling process.

[0054] As a preferred embodiment, the housing of the second driving motor 403 is fixed to the base plate, and the output shaft of the second driving motor 403 is connected to the second transmission rod 405 through the second bevel gear pair 404 .

[0055] A working method of a cold drilling auxiliary device for thermoplastic materials is as follows:

[0056] Step 1: Install the tank body on the workbench of the drilling machine.

[0057] Step 2: Remove the top cover, place the thermoplastic workpiece on the drilling substrate 401, make the position of the hole to be drilled on the thermoplastic workpiece be located at the position of the second circular hole, and install the top cover to its original position; then the controller controls the second drive motor 403 to drive the second transmission rod 405 to rotate forward, and the two worms 2 on the second transmission rod 405 are engaged with the two worm gears 2 406, and the two worm gears 2 406 drive the two screws 2 407 to rotate forward, and the two screws 2 407 drive the drilling substrate 401 and the thermoplastic workpiece to translate through the two nut blocks 2, so that the thermoplastic workpiece translates to the bottom of the two U-shaped clamping plates 302; then control The controller controls the drive motor 1 303 to drive the transmission rod 1 305 to rotate forward. The two worms 1 on the transmission rod 1 305 mesh with the two worm wheels 1 306. The two worm wheels 1 306 drive the two screws 1 307 to rotate forward. The two screws 1 307 drive the two U-shaped clamping plates 302 to move downward synchronously through the two nut blocks 1, so that the two U-shaped clamping plates 302 contact the thermoplastic workpiece and clamp the thermoplastic workpiece with the drilling base plate 401. The positive pressure of the corresponding U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic workpiece detected by each stress gauge is within a preset pressure range, thereby completing the clamping of the thermoplastic workpiece.

[0058] The preset pressure range is obtained through drilling experiments, and the process is as follows:

[0059] S1. The U-shaped clamping plate 302 exerts a positive pressure perpendicular to the surface of the thermoplastic workpiece on the thermoplastic workpiece. The positive pressure is the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic workpiece. However, when the clamping stress is too large, the thermoplastic workpiece will be damaged, causing the thermoplastic workpiece to fail. The clamping stress failure equation of the thermoplastic workpiece during non-drilling processing is:

[0060]

[0061] Where, σ is the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic workpiece during non-drilling processing, X 2t and X 2c It is the longitudinal tensile strength and longitudinal compressive strength of thermoplastic material workpiece, which is related to the workpiece material and can be obtained by looking up the table or tensile and compression tests.

[0062] Since σ>0, the minimum value of σ that causes the thermoplastic material workpiece to reach failure state is obtained according to formula (1): min , which is the minimum clamping stress when the U-shaped clamping plate 302 clamps the thermoplastic workpiece and causes the thermoplastic workpiece to fail during the non-drilling process. The clamping stress range of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic workpiece without damaging the thermoplastic workpiece during the non-drilling process is (0,σ min), and to ensure that the U-shaped clamping plate 302 can clamp the thermoplastic workpiece, the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic workpiece during the non-drilling process is controlled within the range of interval U1, and In this embodiment, it is assumed that U1 is [0.7σ min ,0.9σ min ].

[0063] S2. Perform multiple drilling experiments using a thermoplastic workpiece sample under the same processing parameters. Before each drilling experiment, record the clamping stress σ1 of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic workpiece sample, and ensure that σ1 is within the range U1. During each drilling experiment, record the change in the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic workpiece sample during the drilling process in real time. After each drilling experiment, measure the peak value σ2 of the corresponding clamping stress change, and calculate the vibration stress coefficient β of the thermoplastic workpiece sample during the drilling process, where β = σ1 / σ2. After each drilling experiment, calculate the average value β0 of the vibration stress coefficient for each drilling experiment.

[0064] S3. The failure equation of the clamping pressure of thermoplastic workpiece under drilling processing is:

[0065]

[0066] Wherein, σ0 is the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic material workpiece during drilling;

[0067] The minimum value σ0 obtained according to formula (2) is 0min , which is the minimum clamping stress when the U-shaped clamping plate 302 clamps the thermoplastic workpiece and causes the thermoplastic workpiece to fail during the drilling process. The clamping stress range of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic workpiece without damaging the thermoplastic workpiece during the drilling process is (0, σ 0min ), and at the same time, to ensure that the U-shaped clamping plate 302 can clamp the thermoplastic material workpiece, the clamping stress of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic material workpiece during the drilling process is controlled to be within the range of interval U2, and The interval U2 is the preset pressure range of the U-shaped clamping plate 302 on the thermoplastic material workpiece. In this embodiment, U2 is set to [0.7σ 0min ,0.9σ 0min ].

[0068] Step 3: Open the inlet and outlet of the liquid nitrogen machine, and the hydraulic pump on the liquid nitrogen machine transports the liquid nitrogen from the liquid nitrogen machine through the inlet pipeline to the cooling pipeline 203, and returns to the liquid nitrogen machine from the cooling pipeline 203 through the outlet pipeline. At the same time, the thermal compensation resistor 207 is heated to heat the liquid nitrogen in the inlet pipeline of the temperature compensation chamber 202, so that the temperature of the liquid nitrogen entering the cooling pipeline 203 changes to a preset temperature. The liquid nitrogen in the cooling pipeline 203 exchanges heat with the air in the chamber, thereby lowering the temperature in the chamber to the preset temperature; then the drilling machine drives the drill bit to move, so that the drill bit enters the chamber from the circular hole 1 205, and performs tool setting to align the drill bit with the position to be drilled of the thermoplastic material workpiece, and then performs drilling.

[0069] The preset temperature in the chamber is controlled by changing the heating power of the compensation thermal resistor 207 and the flow rate of the liquid nitrogen in the inlet pipe, thereby making the preset temperature in the chamber adjustable, and realizing the drilling of thermoplastic materials under different low temperature environments. The preset temperature in the chamber is

[0080] Step 4: After the drilling work is completed, the drilling machine drives the drill bit to move to the original position, the hydraulic pump on the liquid nitrogen machine stops working, the thermal compensation resistor 207 stops heating, and the top cover is removed. Then the controller controls the drive motor 303 to drive the transmission rod 305 to reverse, and the two worms on the transmission rod 305 engage with the two worm gears 306. The two worm gears 306 drive the two screws 307 to reverse, and the two screws 307 drive the two U-shaped clamping plates 302 to move upward synchronously through the two nut blocks, so that the two U-shaped clamping plates 302 and the thermoplastic material are in contact with each other. The workpiece is disengaged from the drilling substrate 401 and moves upward to the initial position. Then, the controller controls the driving motor 2 403 to drive the transmission rod 2 405 to reverse. The two worm gears 2 on the transmission rod 2 405 engage with the two worm wheels 2 406. The two worm wheels 2 406 drive the two screw rods 2 407 to reverse. The two screw rods 2 407 drive the drilling substrate 401 and the thermoplastic workpiece to translate through the two nut blocks 2, so that the drilling substrate 401 translates to the initial position. The thermoplastic workpiece is removed and the top cover is installed to its original position, thereby completing the drilling work of the thermoplastic workpiece.

[0081] Among them, based on the thermal history principle of thermoplastic materials, the characteristic that the material strength of thermoplastic materials first decreases, then increases, and then decreases after thermal cycling is utilized. The temperature in the warehouse is subjected to high and low temperature cycles within a preset temperature range, and the strength of the thermoplastic material workpiece can be controlled by controlling the cycle temperature difference, cycle period, and number of cycles. Therefore, the strength control of the thermoplastic material workpiece can be achieved as needed. The greater the cycle temperature difference, the smaller the workpiece strength. The longer the cycle period, the faster the temperature change, and the smaller the workpiece strength. As the number of cycles increases, the workpiece strength shows a trend of first decreasing, then increasing, and then decreasing.
