Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automobile steering knuckle processing, and in particular to a rotary tooling for automobile steering knuckle processing. Background Art

[0002] At present, the steering knuckle is a key component in the automobile steering system, and its processing efficiency and quality are directly related to the performance and safety of the whole vehicle. The main function of the steering knuckle is to transmit and bear the load on the front of the car, support and drive the front wheel to rotate around the kingpin to steer the car. Therefore, the processing technology of the steering knuckle requires not only high precision but also high efficiency to meet the growing production needs. In the related technology, when the steering knuckle processing tool is installed on the machine tool, usually only one side of the steering knuckle can be processed. When the other side needs to be processed, the steering knuckle must be transferred to another machine tool equipped with the corresponding tool. This method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also has low processing efficiency, which is difficult to meet the pursuit of high efficiency and low cost in the modern automobile manufacturing industry.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a rotary tooling for automobile steering knuckle processing. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to improve processing efficiency, the present application provides a rotary tooling for automobile steering knuckle processing.

[0005] The present application provides a rotary tool for automobile steering knuckle processing, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A rotary tool for machining an automobile steering knuckle, comprising:

[0007] Base;

[0008] The turning mechanism comprises a turning seat and a turning drive assembly, wherein the turning drive assembly is arranged on the base, the turning seat is arranged on the turning drive assembly, and a clearance groove is provided on the turning seat, wherein the clearance groove is used for one end of the steering knuckle to pass through;

[0009] The clamping mechanism is arranged on the flip seat, and the clamping mechanism is used for clamping the steering knuckle.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the steering knuckle needs to be processed, the steering knuckle is first clamped by the clamping mechanism, and then the flip drive assembly is used to drive the flip seat to rotate, so as to achieve rapid switching of different surfaces of the steering knuckle, and then facilitate rapid processing of different surfaces of the steering knuckle. The design of the clearance groove on the flip seat facilitates the passage of one end of the steering knuckle. On the one hand, it is convenient to quickly place the steering knuckle at the designated position on the flip seat, and on the other hand, it makes it difficult for the flip seat to block the steering knuckle, so as to facilitate the processing of different surfaces of the steering knuckle. These designs work together to improve the processing efficiency and accuracy of the steering knuckle, reduce the complexity of the process and time waste caused by multiple transfers, and meet the requirements of modern automobile manufacturing industry for high efficiency and low cost.

[0011] Optionally, the clamping mechanism includes a first clamping component, a second clamping component and a clamping drive component, the clamping drive component, the first clamping component and the second clamping component are respectively arranged on the flip seat, the first clamping component and the second clamping component are respectively located on both sides of the flip seat, and the clamping drive component is used to drive the first clamping component and the second clamping component to work so that the first clamping component and the second clamping component respectively clamp the two ends of the steering knuckle.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly are respectively located on both sides of the flip seat, and the clamping drive assembly is used to drive the two assemblies to work, thereby achieving a firm clamping of both ends of the steering knuckle. This design makes the steering knuckle more stable during the processing, avoiding processing errors and safety hazards caused by loose clamping. At the same time, since the clamping drive assembly can synchronously control the actions of the two clamping assemblies, the efficiency of clamping and releasing the steering knuckle is improved, the time and labor intensity of manual operation are reduced, and the overall processing efficiency is further improved.

[0013] Optionally, the clamping drive assembly includes a driving wheel and a driving member, the driving member is arranged on the flip seat, the driving wheel is rotatably connected to the flip seat and connected to the driving member, the clearance groove runs through the driving wheel, the driving wheel is respectively connected to the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly, and the driving member is used to drive the driving wheel to rotate so that the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly respectively clamp the two ends of the steering knuckle.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, since the driving wheel is connected to the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly, when the driving member drives the driving wheel to rotate, the driving wheel can simultaneously drive the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly to work, thereby achieving simultaneous clamping of both ends of the steering knuckle. This not only improves the reliability of clamping, but also greatly shortens the clamping time and improves processing efficiency. In addition, the clearance groove is set through the driving wheel, ensuring that the steering knuckle will not be hindered by the driving wheel when placed on the flip seat, further ensuring the smooth progress of processing.

[0015] Optionally, the first clamping assembly includes a turntable and a plurality of clamping blocks, the turntable is rotatably connected to the flip seat and is coaxially connected to the driving wheel, the clearance groove is arranged through the turntable, a plurality of the clamping blocks surround the turntable and are respectively arranged on the flip seat, a clamping groove is opened on the clamping block, the steering knuckle is placed on the turntable, and the turntable can drive the steering knuckle to be inserted into the clamping groove.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the turntable is coaxially connected with the driving wheel, so that the driving member can drive the turntable to rotate through the driving wheel, so that when the steering knuckle is placed on the turntable, the turntable can drive the steering knuckle to rotate, so that the steering knuckle can be smoothly inserted into the clamping groove on the clamping block, and then the clamping block is used to limit the steering knuckle to achieve a stable clamping of the steering knuckle. At the same time, because the clamping block is arranged around the turntable, the clamping force distribution is more uniform, further improving the clamping effect.

[0017] Optionally, a sliding groove is provided on the flip seat, and the number of the sliding grooves is equal to the number of the blocking blocks. One of the blocking blocks is slidably inserted in the sliding groove, and the blocking block is provided with a first guide block. The turntable is provided with a second guide block, and the second guide block is slidably connected to the first guide block. When the turntable drives the second guide block to rotate, the second guide block can drive the blocking block to move into the sliding groove through the first guide block.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the turntable drives the steering knuckle to be inserted into the clamping groove, the turntable will simultaneously drive the second guide block to move, so that the second guide block drives the clamping block to move into the slide groove through the first guide block, thereby achieving the clamping of the steering knuckle by the clamping block. This design not only improves the stability and reliability of clamping, but also effectively prevents the steering knuckle from loosening or deflecting during the processing, ensuring the processing accuracy and quality.

[0019] Optionally, an elastic member is provided between the clamping block and the inner wall of the slide slot, and the elastic member is used to push the clamping block to move out of the slide slot.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic member between the clamping block and the inner wall of the slide slot can automatically push the clamping block to move outward when the steering knuckle is not clamped, so that the steering knuckle is easier to insert into the clamping slot. This design not only simplifies the operation process and improves work efficiency, but also ensures that the clamping block can be accurately positioned each time it is clamped, ensuring the stability and reliability of the clamping.

[0021] Optionally, the turntable is provided with anti-slip grooves.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-slip pattern increases the friction between the turntable surface and the steering knuckle, which on the one hand makes it easier for the turntable to stably drive the steering knuckle to rotate, and on the other hand helps prevent the steering knuckle from being displaced or slipped due to vibration or impact during the processing, thereby ensuring the processing accuracy and reliability.

[0023] Optionally, the second clamping assembly includes a disc and a plurality of clamping jaws, the disc being arranged on a side of the flip seat away from the first clamping assembly and being coaxial with the driving wheel, the clearance groove being arranged through the disc, a receiving groove being provided on a side of the disc close to the driving wheel, the receiving groove being connected to the clearance groove, a plurality of clamping jaws being evenly distributed in the receiving groove around the axis of the disc, the clamping jaws being connected to the driving wheel, and the driving wheel being capable of driving a plurality of clamping jaws to approach or move away from the clearance groove.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, when the driving wheel rotates, the driving wheel can drive a plurality of clamping jaws to move along the radial direction in the receiving groove, thereby realizing the opening and closing action of the clamping jaws. This design not only ensures that the clamping jaws can accurately and stably clamp the other end of the steering knuckle, but also improves the reliability and stability of clamping. At the same time, since the clamping jaws are evenly distributed on the axis of the disc, the clamping force is more evenly distributed, avoiding the deformation of the steering knuckle caused by uneven clamping, and further improving the processing quality and efficiency.

[0025] Optionally, a first guide groove is provided on the clamping jaw, a plurality of protrusions are provided on the disc, one of the protrusions is slidably inserted in one of the first guide grooves, a plurality of second guide grooves are provided on the disc, the plurality of second guide grooves are evenly distributed around the axis of the disc, and a plurality of connecting blocks are provided on the driving wheel, one of the connecting blocks is connected to one of the clamping jaws and passes through the clamping jaw and is slidably inserted in one of the second guide grooves.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, when the driving wheel rotates, the driving wheel can drive the connecting block to rotate, so that the connecting block slides in the second guide groove, and the connecting block drives the clamping jaw to move. At this time, the protrusion moves in the first guide groove and exerts a force on the inner wall of the first guide groove, so as to facilitate driving the clamping jaw to approach or move away from the clearance groove to realize the opening and closing of the clamping jaw, and then facilitate using the clamping jaw to quickly and accurately clamp or loosen the steering knuckle, thereby improving the processing efficiency to a certain extent.

[0027] Optionally, the driving member includes a motor, a turbine and a worm, the motor is arranged on the flip seat, the turbine is coaxially connected to the driving wheel, the worm is rotatably connected to the flip seat and meshes with the turbine, and one end of the worm is connected to the output end of the motor.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the motor is arranged on the flip seat, and its output end is connected to the worm, the worm and the turbine are meshed with each other, and the turbine is coaxially connected to the driving wheel. This structural design allows the rotation of the motor to be effectively transmitted to the driving wheel through the worm and the turbine, thereby driving the first clamping assembly and the second clamping assembly to work, ensuring that the steering knuckle is firmly clamped. At the same time, since the worm wheel and the worm have high transmission accuracy and stability, the stability and reliability of the clamping process can be guaranteed, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of the steering knuckle processing.

[0029] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0030] 1. Through the cooperation of the base, the flip seat, the flip drive assembly and the clamping mechanism, after the steering knuckle is fixed on the flip seat, the flip drive assembly can drive the steering knuckle to flip through the flip seat, so as to realize the rapid switching of different surfaces of the steering knuckle, thereby facilitating the rapid processing of different surfaces of the steering knuckle, and improving the processing efficiency to a certain extent;

[0064] The implementation principle of a rotary tooling for automobile steering knuckle processing in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: when the steering knuckle 4 needs to be processed, the steering knuckle 4 is first placed on the turntable 311, and one end of the steering knuckle 4 passes through the clearance groove 211 and extends to the side of the flip seat 21 away from the turntable 311.

In this process, the turntable 311 can apply pressure to the first guide block 3122 through the second guide block 3112, so that the first guide block 3122 drives the clamping block 312 to move into the slide groove 213, thereby realizing the clamping of the steering knuckle 4 by the clamping block 312.

[0065] At the same time, the driving wheel 331 drives the connecting block 3311 to rotate, so that the connecting block 3311 slides in the second guide groove 3213 and applies a force to the inner wall of the second guide groove 3213, and the connecting block 3311 drives the clamping jaw 322 to move. At this time, the protrusion 3212 moves in the first guide groove 3221 and applies a force to the inner wall of the first guide groove 3221, so as to facilitate driving the clamping jaw 322 to approach the clearance groove 211, so that the clamping jaw 322 clamps the steering knuckle 4, thereby fixing both ends of the steering knuckle 4.

[0066] Finally, after one end surface of the steering knuckle 4 is processed, the flip motor 223 drives the flip seat 21 to flip through the flip disk 221, so that the other end surface of the steering knuckle 4 moves to the processing position, thereby facilitating the processing of both end surfaces of the steering knuckle 4, thereby helping to improve the processing efficiency.
