Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to a mechanical processing method, and in particular relates to a reference surface processing tool and an anti-deformation processing method for a chevron-shaped joint. Background Art
[0002] like Figure 1 As shown, the chevron joint products are widely used in load-bearing parts of aviation and aerospace, and most of them are critical parts, which directly affect flight safety. This type of product has the characteristics of long cantilever, thin wall thickness, and high processing precision. In order to ensure the performance of the chevron joint products, most of them are made of high-strength steel and titanium alloy materials, which puts high demands on the processing of the products. With the further requirements of aviation and aerospace products for structural weight reduction, the wall thickness requirements of the chevron joint are getting thinner and thinner, resulting in worse and worse rigidity of parts processing. At present, the processing of chevron joint products has the following problems:
[0003] 1. In order to minimize the deformation of the chevron joint caused by clamping during the finishing stage, it is necessary to ensure that the flatness of the finishing reference surface is no more than 0.02mm. Since titanium alloy materials are not suitable for grinding, the reference surface can only be processed by milling. The commonly used pressure plates and vise clamping methods will cause large clamping deformation, making it difficult to ensure the flatness requirements of the finishing reference surface;
[0004] 2. The two ears on the outside of the mountain-shaped joint are only about 5mm thick and about 60mm high. The structure is similar to a large tuning fork. The tool is very likely to let go and resonate during the cutting process. The let-down phenomenon causes the ear size tolerance to fail to meet the design requirements; the resonance phenomenon causes serious damage to the tool, resulting in poor surface roughness of the ear and even forcing the machine tool to stop processing. Summary of the invention
[0005] The present application provides a reference surface processing tool and an anti-deformation processing method for a U-shaped joint, which can solve the problem of tool chattering and poor surface finish during the cutting process caused by the poor rigidity of the U-shaped joint; and solve the problem that the shape and position tolerances of parts are difficult to meet assembly requirements due to the easy deformation of the fine machining reference preparation and clamping.
