Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mechanical processing, and in particular relates to a multi-station gear processing and manufacturing platform. Background Art
[0002] Traditional gear processing is mostly completed on single-station equipment. Frequent loading, unloading and handling of workpieces not only wastes a lot of time and reduces production efficiency, but also easily causes bumps and damages to gear blanks or semi-finished products during loading, unloading and handling, affecting the quality of the gears. In addition, since the accuracy of equipment at different stations may vary, each re-clamping of the workpiece may introduce clamping errors, making it difficult to ensure the processing accuracy of the gears. For example, after a single gear is polished on a grinding device, the gear needs to be moved to a cleaning machine for cleaning, and then transferred to a gear grinding machine and other equipment for subsequent finishing. Since gears are usually manufactured in large quantities, this single-station processing method seriously affects the processing efficiency of the gears. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a multi-station gear processing and manufacturing platform disclosed in the present invention includes a platform plate 1, a fixed plate 2 and a limit plate 3 installed on the platform plate 1 in parallel and at intervals, the fixed plate 2 is vertically fixed on the upper side of the platform plate 1 and is perpendicular to the platform plate 1, the limit plate 3 is parallel to the fixed plate 2, and the two have the same area and width. The normal direction of the fixed plate 2 and the limit plate 3 is the longitudinal direction. Unlike the fixed plate 2, the limit plate 3 can slide along the longitudinal direction to adjust the relative distance between the limit plate 3 and the fixed plate 2, so as to facilitate the clamping of the gear 4 or various parts. After the position adjustment is completed, the relative position between the limit plate 3 and the platform plate 1 is fixed by a locking member, so as to facilitate the subsequent processing of the gear 4 and ensure the stability of the processing.
[0028] A longitudinal support member 5 is arranged between the fixed plate 2 and the limiting plate 3 to support the gear 4 from the inner hole of the gear 4. The longitudinal support member 5 extends in the longitudinal direction, and its two ends are respectively connected to the fixed plate 2 and the limiting plate 3. By arranging the longitudinal support member 5 to support the inner hole of the gear 4, it is convenient to grind or mill the outer tooth surface of the gear 4.
[0029] The fixed plate 2 is provided with an end positioning member 6 on the side facing the limit plate 3, and at least one elastic support member 7 is provided on the outer side of the longitudinal support member 5 corresponding to the end positioning member 6, and a mounting position of a gear 4 is formed between two adjacent elastic support members 7; the embodiment of the present invention has three gears 4 and two elastic support members 7, and the specific arrangement is the end positioning member 6-gear 4-elastic support member 7-gear 4-elastic support member 7-gear 4. Those skilled in the art can understand that different lengths of the longitudinal support members 5 can be selected as needed to support more groups of gears 4.
[0030] A clamping assembly 8 is also installed on the fixed plate 2, and the gear 4 on the side away from the end positioning piece 6 is in contact with the clamping assembly 8. After the clamping assembly 8 is started, the clamping assembly 8 is used to press each gear 4 and the elastic support piece 7 to the end positioning piece 6 in the longitudinal direction in sequence; a circumferential positioning piece 9 for circumferential positioning of the gear 4 is also installed between the fixed plate 2 and the limit plate 3.
[0031] Since the installation position of a gear 4 is formed between two adjacent elastic support members 7 of the present invention, when the device disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention is used, first, each gear 4 and the elastic support member 7 are alternately mounted on the outer side of the longitudinal support member 5. When it is necessary to grind the gear tooth surfaces of multiple gears 4, each gear 4 is pressed together by the clamping assembly 8. At this time, the end faces of two adjacent gears 4 are tightly matched. Under the positioning effect of the circumferential positioning member 9, the gear teeth of each gear 4 can correspond one by one, thereby facilitating unified grinding and improving the processing efficiency of the gear 4. When it is necessary to clean or trim the gear 4 individually, the clamping assembly 8 is released, and the elastic support member 7 can separate the gears 4, thereby avoiding the contact between the gears 4 affecting the cleaning and avoiding the existence of dead angles during cleaning. After releasing the clamping assembly 8, it is also convenient to finely grind a single gear 4 separately. When it is necessary to replace the polished gear teeth, the circumferential positioning member 9 is released, and each gear 4 is rotated circumferentially.
[0032] In this embodiment, the circumferential positioning member 9 includes a limiting disk 10, an elastic clamping ring 11, and a positioning rod 12. The limiting disk 10 is in the shape of a disk, and the plane where the limiting disk 10 is located is parallel to the plane where the fixed plate 2 is located. There are two groups of limiting disks 10, and the sides of the fixed plate 2 and the limiting plate 3 are both installed with limiting disks 10. The limiting disks 10 are provided with three groups of guide grooves 13, and the guide grooves 13 of the two groups of limiting disks 10 correspond to each other. Both the fixed plate 2 and the limiting plate 3 are provided with through holes 14, and there are two positioning rods 12, which respectively cooperate with the two lower groups of guide grooves 13. After passing through the through holes 14, the two ends of the positioning rod 12 respectively cooperate with the guide grooves 13 of the two limiting disks 10. The guide grooves 13 extend along the radial direction, and the positioning rod 12 can make a certain displacement along the guide grooves 13 to achieve the limitation of the surface of the gear 4. An elastic clamping ring 11 is wound around the circumference of the limit plate 10, and the elastic clamping ring 11 clamps the positioning rod 12 to the limit plate 10 in the radial direction, and the outer side of the positioning rod 12 cooperates with the tooth groove of the gear 4. In the embodiment of the present invention, the elastic clamping ring 11 adopts an annular coil spring 24, which has a radially inward elastic preload force. Through the action of the preload force, the positioning rod 12 can be provided with a radial elastic force, so as to facilitate the positioning of the gear 4.
[0033] By setting the above structure, the two sets of positioning rods 12 cooperate to position the circumference of multiple gears 4, prevent the circumferential rotation of the gears 4, and ensure the consistency of the positioning of the multiple gears 4. The above structure can achieve rapid positioning while avoiding large-area blocking of the surface of the gear 4, providing a better environment for subsequent processing.
[0034] In this embodiment, the outer end of the positioning rod 12 is equipped with an end cap 15, which can be a nut, and can limit the outer side of the limiting plate 10. The limiting plate 10 is provided with a limiting groove 16 along the circumference for limiting the elastic clamping ring 11, which can increase the stability of the elastic clamping ring 11 when in use.
[0035] In this embodiment, the guide grooves 13 are evenly spaced along the circumference of the limiting plate 10, and a stabilizing rod 17 is installed on the fixed plate 2 and the limiting plate 3. The outer end of the stabilizing rod 17 can also be provided with an end 15, which can facilitate the limiting of the limiting plate 10. The stabilizing rod 17 is connected to the limiting plate 10 after passing through the guide groove 13, and the elastic clamping ring 11 is also sleeved on the outer side of the stabilizing rod 17. By providing the stabilizing rod 17, since the stabilizing rod 17 is located on the upper side of the positioning rod 12, the stability of the limiting of the circumferential positioning member 9 can be increased. One stabilizing rod 17 and two positioning rods 12 are evenly distributed on the same concentric circle with the center of the limiting plate 10 as the center, which can facilitate the elastic clamping ring 11 to tighten the three at the same time.
[0036] In this embodiment, the clamping assembly 8 includes a pressing plate 18, a screw 19 threadedly connected to the pressing plate 18, and a rotation driving device 20 for driving the screw 19 to rotate. The rotation driving device 20 includes a stepping motor and a gear 4 transmission. The output end of the gear 4 transmission is connected to the screw 19. When the screw 19 rotates, the pressing plate 18 can be driven to move longitudinally. The two ends of the screw 19 are rotationally connected to the fixed plate 2 and the limit plate 3. The pressing plate 18 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the positioning rod 12, and the positioning rod 12 can also limit the pressing plate 18. The outer side of the pressing plate 18 can be removed from the screw 19 to facilitate the clamping of the gear 4.
[0037] In this embodiment, the end positioning member 6 includes a support plate 21 fixedly connected to the fixed plate 2, a positioning ring 22 connected to the support plate 21, and the positioning ring 22 is coaxially installed on the outer side of the longitudinal support member 5. The positioning ring 22 is used to position the end face of the gear 4. The elastic support member 7 includes two support rings 23 and a spring 24 connecting the two support rings 23. An annular groove 25 corresponding to the support ring 23 is formed on the end face of the gear 4, and the positioning ring 22 can correspond to the annular groove 25 at the same time. After the elastic support member 7 is compressed, the annular groove 25 can hide the support ring 23 and the spring 24 therein to prevent the processing of the gear 4 from being affected.
[0038] In this embodiment, the longitudinal supporting member 5 includes a center rod 26, a base 27, a guide seat 28, a special-shaped slider 29, an arc plate 30, a pushing seat 31 and an elastic supporting member 7. The two ends of the center rod 26 are respectively connected to the fixed plate 2 and the limiting plate 3. The base 27 is fixed at one end of the center rod 26, the guide seat 28 is fixed in the middle of the center rod 26, the pushing seat 31 is slidably installed at the other end of the center rod 26, the special-shaped slider 29 is slidably installed in a guide groove 33 circumferentially opened on the guide seat 28, the outer side of the special-shaped slider 29 is fixedly connected to the arc plate 30, the base 27 and the pushing seat 31 form an arc surface 34 corresponding to the end face of the special-shaped slider 29 toward one end of the special-shaped slider 29, and an elastic supporting member 7 is installed between the special-shaped slider 29 and the base 27 and between the special-shaped slider 29 and the pushing seat 31.
[0039] When supporting the inner hole of the gear 4, the push seat 31 can be moved along the circumferential direction, and the arc surface 34 of the push seat 31 contacts the end surface of the special-shaped slider 29, so that the special-shaped slider 29 can be driven to move along the radial direction. At this time, the special-shaped slider 29 drives the arc plate 30 to support the inner hole of the gear 4, and vice versa, the gear 4 can be loosened, and the elastic support member 7 can play a role in elastic recovery. By also providing a corresponding arc surface 34 on the base 27, the stability of the special-shaped slider 29 when moving can be increased.
[0040] In some other embodiments, the pushing of the pushing seat 31 can be achieved by a pushing assembly, which includes a sleeve 35 and a knob 36. The sleeve 35 is slidably sleeved on the outer sides of the pushing seat 31 and the knob 36, and a protrusion is arranged on the inner side. The sleeve 35 is supported by the limit plate 3 at the same time. The outer end of the center rod 26 is threadedly connected to the knob 36. The knob 36 can move in the longitudinal direction and push the pushing seat 31 through the sleeve 35. The above structure is adopted to facilitate control and save operating space.
[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
