Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of tail nozzle processing, in particular to a production process and auxiliary tooling for the tail nozzle of an aero-engine. Background Art

[0002] The tail nozzle of an aircraft engine is an important part of the aircraft engine. Its main function is to accelerate the expansion of the gas that still has a certain amount of energy flowing out of the turbine and discharge it from the engine at a higher speed, thereby generating thrust. The tail nozzle is generally located after the low-pressure turbine of the aircraft engine. The airflow flows into the nozzle through the exhaust cone and the rear support plate of the turbine, and finally flows out from the nozzle; there are various types, including convergent type, convergent divergent type, etc.

[0003] In the prior art, the tail nozzle design of aircraft engines often involves complex and varied geometric shapes. The differences in these shapes are mainly reflected in the structural characteristics of their various parts. For the relatively flat surface areas in the tail nozzle, they can be directly processed by efficient automated polishing equipment, which can significantly reduce manual intervention, thereby ensuring the processing quality while reducing the physical burden of operators and improving the production efficiency of this link. However, for those with uneven surfaces, especially the serrated parts, it is difficult to automate them through standard large-scale polishing equipment, and they can only rely on manually operated small and flexible grinding equipment to complete the grinding task through manual work.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0035] like Figure 1-Figure 9 As shown, an auxiliary tooling for the production of an aircraft engine tail nozzle according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a base 1, a feed conveyor belt 5 and a discharge conveyor belt 6, a turntable 2 is provided on the base 1, a workpiece 7 is provided on the feed conveyor belt 5 and the discharge conveyor belt 6, the top of the workpiece 7 is toothed, a plurality of groups of grinding mechanisms 3 and clamping mechanisms 4 are evenly provided on the top of the turntable 2, the clamping mechanism 4 can clamp the workpiece 7 on the feed conveyor belt 5 to the grinding mechanism 3 for grinding and then transfer it to the discharge conveyor belt 6, and the grinding mechanism 3 can polish and grind the workpiece 7;

[0036] The grinding mechanism 3 includes a pillar 301, a cylinder 1 302, a polishing unit and a guide ring 305. A plurality of pillars 301 are evenly fixed on the top of the turntable 2. A cylinder 1 302 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the pillar 301. An L-shaped connecting plate 303 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 1 302. The L-shaped connecting plate 303 is slidably connected to the side wall of the pillar 301. A bracket 304 is fixedly connected to the side of the L-shaped connecting plate 303 away from the cylinder 1 302. The bracket 304 is provided with a polishing unit. The bottom ends of both sides of the bracket 304 are fixedly connected with guide rings 305. The polishing unit is adapted to the guide rings 305.

[0037] The workpiece 7 is then polished and rubbed by the polishing unit 3, and the polishing unit 305 is used to polish the workpiece 7. It has become an automated flow operation for loading, clamping, grinding and unloading the workpiece 7, and achieved rough grinding of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, effectively solving the problem in the prior art that the tail nozzle design of the aircraft engine often involves complex and changeable geometric shapes, and the differences in these shapes are mainly reflected in the structural characteristics of its various parts. For the relatively flat surface area in the tail nozzle, it can be directly processed by efficient automated polishing equipment, which can significantly reduce manual intervention, thereby reducing the physical burden of operators while ensuring the processing quality and improving the production efficiency of this link. However, for those uneven surfaces, especially the toothed parts, it is difficult to automate them through standard large-scale polishing equipment, and they can only rely on manually operated small and flexible grinding equipment to complete the grinding task through manual work, which not only increases the work intensity of the staff and reduces the work efficiency, but also makes it difficult for the staff to ensure accuracy after long-term manual work, which will affect the performance of the tail nozzle.

[0038] like Figure 2-Figure 6 As shown, a guide groove 306 is provided on the inner arc wall of the guide ring 305, and the guide groove 306 is tooth-shaped and corresponds to the top of the workpiece 7;

[0039] The polishing unit includes a motor 2 307, a rotating plate 308, a fixed sleeve 1 310 and a polishing wheel 314. The motor 2 307 is fixedly installed on the top of the bracket 304. The output end of the motor 2 307 extends to the bottom of the bracket 304 and is fixedly connected to the rotating plate 308. A plurality of groups of support arms 1 309 are evenly fixedly connected to the outer arc wall of the rotating plate 308. The end of the support arm 1 309 away from the rotating plate 308 is fixedly connected to the fixed sleeve 1 310. A T-shaped rod 1 312 is slidably connected in the inner cavity of the fixed sleeve 1 310. A spring 1 311 is fixedly connected between the top of the T-shaped rod 1 312 and the top of the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 1 310. The T-shaped rod 1 312 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the fixed sleeve 1 310. One end of the fixing frame 111 away from the spring 111 extends to the bottom of the fixing sleeve 110 and is fixedly connected to the fixing frame 113, and a polishing wheel 314 is rotatably connected to the fixing frame 113. A motor 315 is fixedly installed on the side of the fixing frame 113 away from the guide ring 305, and the output end of the motor 315 is fixedly connected to the polishing wheel 314. An L-shaped frame 316 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixing frame 113 close to the guide ring 305, and a connecting rod 317 is fixedly connected to the side of the L-shaped frame 316 close to the guide ring 305. A guide wheel 318 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 317 away from the L-shaped frame 316, and the guide wheel 318 is slidably connected to the guide groove 306.

[0040] In this embodiment, when the clamping mechanism 4 clamps the workpiece 7 on the feeding conveyor belt 5 onto the turntable 2, the cylinder 1 302 drives the L-shaped connecting plate 303 to descend, so that the guide ring 305 and the polishing unit move to the toothed part of the workpiece 7. At this time, the motor 2 307 is started, driving the rotating plate 308 to rotate, so that the support arm 1 309 drives the fixed sleeve 1 310 to rotate, and then the polishing wheel 314 and the guide wheel 318 on the fixed frame 1 313 rotate together. In this process, the guide wheel 318 slides along the guide groove 306 on the guide ring 305. Because the guide groove 306 corresponds to the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, the motor 315 can drive the polishing wheel 314 to grind the top plane of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7. When the guide wheel 31 When 8 slides to the trough in the guide groove 306, the polishing wheel 314 moves to the trough of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7. At this time, the spring 1 311 is in a natural state. When the guide wheel 318 slides from the trough of the guide groove 306 to the crest, the polishing wheel 314 moves from the trough to the crest of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7. During this process, the polishing wheel 314 drives the T-bar 1 312 to compress the spring 1 311 until the guide wheel 318 moves to the trough again. The polishing wheel 314 continues to move and polish while close to the workpiece 7 under the elastic force of the spring 1 311. Through this structure, the rough polishing of the workpiece 7 is achieved, and the staff only needs to check and fine-process it later, which effectively avoids the staff's long-term manual polishing work.

[0041] like Figure 2-Figure 3As shown, the clamping mechanism 4 includes a horizontal guide rail 401, a movable seat 402, and a drag chain assembly 403. The top of the pillar 301 is fixedly connected to the horizontal guide rail 401, and the movable seat 402 is slidably connected to the horizontal guide rail 401. The drag chain assembly 403 is arranged between the movable seat 402 and the horizontal guide rail 401. The movable seat 402 can move horizontally through the drag chain assembly 403. A crossbeam 404 is arranged below the horizontal guide rail 401. The crossbeam 404 is fixedly connected to the movable seat 402. One side of the crossbeam 404 A bidirectional threaded rod 405 is rotatably connected to the side, a motor 5 406 is fixedly installed on one side of the cross beam 404 away from the bidirectional threaded rod 405, a gear 1 407 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 5 406, the gear 1 407 is meshed and connected with the gear 2 408, the gear 2 408 is fixedly connected to the end of the bidirectional threaded rod 405, two screw sleeves 409 are symmetrically threadedly connected on the bidirectional threaded rod 405, the screw sleeves 409 are slidably connected to the cross beam 404, and a clamping manipulator is arranged below the screw sleeves 409;

[0042] When the turntable 2 drives the clamping mechanism 4 to rotate to the feeding conveyor belt 5, the moving seat 402 is driven to slide on the horizontal guide rail 401 by the drag chain assembly 403 until the clamping manipulator moves to the top of the workpiece 7. At this time, the motor 5 406 is started to drive the gear 1 407 to rotate, so that the gear 2 408 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 405 to rotate, and then the two screw sleeves 409 drive the two clamping manipulators to slide relative to each other, completing the clamping and fixing of the workpiece 7, and then the moving seat 402 is driven to reset by the drag chain assembly 403, so that the polishing mechanism 3 can polish the workpiece 7. When the turntable 2 drives the polished workpiece 7 to rotate to the discharging conveyor belt 6, the moving seat 402 is driven to slide again by the drag chain assembly 403, so that the clamping manipulator drives the workpiece 7 to move to the discharging conveyor belt 6, the clamping manipulator unloads, and the workpiece 7 is transferred by the discharging conveyor belt 6. The automatic operation of loading and unloading the workpiece 7 is completed through this structure, and the polishing mechanism 3 is cooperated to realize the flow operation, which greatly improves the work efficiency.

[0043] like Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, the clamping manipulator includes a vertical guide rail 410, a cylinder 411, a vertical plate 413 and an arc-shaped clamping plate 414. The bottoms of the two screw sleeves 409 are fixedly connected with the vertical guide rails 410, and the two vertical guide rails 410 are slidably connected with sliders 412. The opposite sides of the two sliders 412 are fixedly connected with the vertical plates 413, and the opposite sides of the two vertical plates 413 are fixedly connected with the arc-shaped clamping plates 414. The two arc-shaped clamping plates 414 are adapted to the outer wall of the workpiece 7.

[0044] In this embodiment, during the process of loading and unloading the clamping robot, cylinder 2 411 will drive the slider 412 to move on the vertical guide rail 410, so that when the two vertical plates 413 cooperate with the arc-shaped clamping plate 414 to clamp the workpiece 7 and move it, it can avoid the bottom of the workpiece 7 from rubbing against the turntable 2, the feed conveyor belt 5 and the discharge conveyor belt 6 to cause damage.

[0045] like Fig. 9 As shown, a motor 201 is fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the base 1, and the output end of the motor 201 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the turntable 2. The top of the turntable 2 is fixedly connected with workstations 202 having the same number as the pillars 301. The workstations 202 are adapted to the workpiece 7, and the workstations 202 are made of rubber.

[0046] In this embodiment, by setting a rubber workstation seat 202 on the top of the turntable 2, the stability of the workpiece 7 during the grinding process can be enhanced, and the vibration generated by the polishing wheel 314 during operation can be avoided to cause the workpiece 7 to shake, affect the polishing quality, and further cause adverse effects on the overall performance of the workpiece 7.

[0047] like Figure 2-Figure 8 As shown, multiple groups of second support arms 319 are evenly fixed on the outer arc-shaped wall of the rotating plate 308. The number of the second support arms 319 is the same as the number of the first support arms 309, and they are staggered. The end of the first support arm 309 away from the rotating plate 308 is fixedly connected to the second fixed sleeve 320. The inner cavity of the second fixed sleeve 320 is slidably connected with the second T-shaped rod 322. The top of the second T-shaped rod 322 and the top of the inner wall of the second fixed sleeve 320 are fixedly connected with the second spring 321. The second T-shaped rod 322 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the second fixed sleeve 320. One end of 22 away from the second spring 321 extends to the bottom of the second fixed sleeve 320 and is fixedly connected to the second fixed frame 323, the second fixed frame 323 is provided with a rotating frame 324, the rotating frame 324 is provided with a polishing piece, both sides of the rotating frame 324 are fixedly connected with a rotating shaft 325, the rotating shaft 325 is rotatably connected to the second fixed frame 323, and a guide block 326 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 325 on the side close to the guide ring 305, and the guide block 326 is slidably connected to the guide groove 306;

[0048] When the polishing wheel 314 is grinding the top plane of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, the rotating plate 308 drives the fixed sleeve 2 320 on the support arm 2 319 to rotate, so that the fixed frame 2 323 drives the polishing piece on the rotating frame 324 to rotate together. Because the rotating frame 324 is rotatably connected to the fixed frame 2 323 through the rotating shaft 325, and the guide block 326 set at one end of one of the rotating shafts 325 slides along the guide groove 306, when the guide block 326 slides horizontally along the troughs and peaks in the guide groove 306, the rotating frame 324 carries the polishing piece to perform rounded polishing on both sides of the troughs and peaks of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7. When the guide block 326 slides along the inclined surface in the guide groove 306, the rotating frame 324 drives the polishing piece to rotate and correspondingly performs rounded polishing on both sides of the inclined surface of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7. Through this mechanism, the rough polishing of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7 is further achieved, reducing the pressure on the staff.

[0049] like Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown, the polishing member includes a mounting frame 330, a polishing belt 331 and a motor 332. The mounting frame 330 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating frame 324. The mounting frame 330 is triangular in shape, and three transmission rollers are rotatably connected to the mounting frame 330. The mounting frame 330 is provided with a polishing belt 331, and the polishing belt 331 is driven by the three transmission rollers. The motor 332 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the mounting frame 330, and the output end of the motor 332 is fixedly connected to one of the transmission rollers.

[0050] In this embodiment, since the polishing belt 331 is arranged on the triangular mounting frame 330, when the cylinder 1 302 drives the L-shaped connecting plate 303 to descend, the bottom center part of the polishing belt 331 directly contacts the plane of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, and the bottom sides of the polishing belt 331 are lower than the plane of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, so that the polishing belt 331 can not only further process the workpiece 7 after being polished by the polishing wheel 314, but also grind and polish the edge lines of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7.

[0051] like Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown, an arc groove 327 is provided on the inner side wall of the fixing frame, an arc block 328 is slidably connected in the arc groove 327, the arc block 328 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 325, and springs 329 are fixedly connected to both sides of the arc block 328, and one end of the spring 329 away from the arc block 328 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the arc groove 327;

[0052] In this embodiment, when the guide block 326 slides from the trough to the crest or from the crest to the trough in the guide groove 306, the rotating frame 324 will deflect with the guide block 326 due to the shape of the guide block 326. At this time, the arc block 328 on the rotating shaft 325 slides along the arc groove 327 and compresses the spring three 329 on one side, and stretches the spring three 329 on the other side until the guide block 326 moves to the trough section or the crest section, and the spring three 329 is reset, and so on. By setting the arc block 328 and the spring three 329, the stability of the rotating shaft 325 reciprocating with the guide block 326 can be enhanced.

[0053] A production process for an aircraft engine tail nozzle, which is applicable to the above-mentioned aircraft engine tail nozzle production auxiliary tooling, and comprises the following steps:

[0054] S1: The staff places the workpiece 7 with the teeth facing upward and at equal intervals on the feed conveyor belt 5, and conveys the workpiece 7 to the turntable 2 through the feed conveyor belt 5;

[0055] S2: When the turntable 2 drives the clamping mechanism 4 to rotate to the feeding conveyor belt 5, the feeding conveyor belt 5, the discharging conveyor belt 6 and the turntable 2 are all stopped, and the clamping mechanism 4 clamps the workpiece 7 to the corresponding grinding mechanism 3. After that, the feeding conveyor belt 5, the discharging conveyor belt 6 and the turntable 2 continue to work, and at the same time, the polishing unit on the grinding mechanism 3 starts to polish the workpiece 7;

[0056] S3: When the turntable 2 drives the workpiece 7 that has been polished to rotate to the discharge conveyor belt 6, the feed conveyor belt 5, the discharge conveyor belt 6 and the turntable 2 are all stopped, the polishing unit stops working, and the clamping mechanism 4 transfers the workpiece 7 that has completed the polishing process to the discharge conveyor belt 6, and the discharge conveyor belt 6 unloads the workpiece 7.

[0057] Working principle: the staff places the workpiece 7 with the teeth facing upward and at equal intervals on the feed conveyor belt 5, and transmits the workpiece 7 to the turntable 2 through the feed conveyor belt 5. At this time, the feed conveyor belt 5 stops driving and the turntable 2 stops rotating, so that the clamping mechanism 4 rotating to the feed conveyor belt 5 clamps the workpiece 7 to the grinding mechanism 3. Thereafter, the feed conveyor belt 5 continues to drive, and the turntable 2 starts to rotate until the next workpiece 7 corresponds to the next clamping mechanism 4. The clamped workpiece 7 is polished and ground by the polishing unit on the grinding mechanism 3 while the turntable 2 rotates. The guide ring 305 provided can make the polishing unit move along the toothed track of the workpiece 7 when grinding the workpiece 7. When the workpiece 7 is driven by the turntable 2 to rotate to the discharge conveyor belt 6, the feed conveyor belt 5, the discharge conveyor belt 6 and the turntable 2 are all stopped, the polishing unit stops working, the clamping mechanism 4 transfers the workpiece 7 that has completed the rough polishing treatment to the discharge conveyor belt 6, and the discharge conveyor belt 6 unloads the workpiece 7. Through the cooperation between the above structures, the automated assembly line operation of loading, clamping, grinding and unloading the workpiece 7 is completed, and the rough grinding treatment of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7 is realized. When the clamping mechanism 4 clamps the workpiece 7 on the feed conveyor belt 5 onto the turntable 2, the cylinder 1 302 drives the L-shaped connecting plate 303 to descend, so that the guide ring 305 and the polishing unit move to the toothed part of the workpiece 7. At this time, the motor 2 307 is started, driving the rotating plate 308 to rotate, so that the support arm 1 309 drives the fixed sleeve 1 310 rotates, thereby causing the polishing wheel 314 and the guide wheel 318 on the fixed frame 1 313 to rotate together. During this process, the guide wheel 318 slides along the guide groove 306 on the guide ring 305. Because the guide groove 306 corresponds to the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, the motor 315 can drive the polishing wheel 314 to grind the top plane of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7. When the guide wheel 318 slides to the valley in the guide groove 306, the polishing wheel 314 moves to the valley of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7. At this time, the spring 1 311 is in a natural state. When the guide wheel 318 slides from the valley of the guide groove 306 to the peak, the polishing wheel 314 moves from the valley of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7 to the peak. During this process, the polishing wheel 31 4 drives T-bar 1 312 to compress spring 1 311, until the guide wheel 318 moves to the trough again, the polishing wheel 314 continues to move and polish while close to the workpiece 7 under the elastic force of the spring 1 311. Through this structure, the rough polishing of the workpiece 7 is achieved, and the staff only needs to check the fine processing later, which effectively avoids the long-term manual polishing operation of the staff. When the turntable 2 drives the clamping mechanism 4 to rotate to the feed conveyor belt 5, the moving seat 402 is driven to slide on the horizontal guide rail 401 through the drag chain assembly 403 until the clamping manipulator moves to the top of the workpiece 7. At this time, the motor 5 406 is started, driving the gear 1 407 to rotate, so that the gear 2 408 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 405 to rotate.Then, the two screw sleeves 409 drive the two clamping manipulators to slide relative to each other, complete the clamping and fixing of the workpiece 7, and then the drag chain assembly 403 drives the moving seat 402 to reset, so that the grinding mechanism 3 can polish the workpiece 7. When the turntable 2 drives the polished workpiece 7 to rotate to the discharge conveyor belt 6, the drag chain assembly 403 drives the moving seat 402 to slide again, so that the clamping manipulator drives the workpiece 7 to move to the discharge conveyor belt 6, the clamping manipulator unloads, and the workpiece 7 is transferred by the discharge conveyor belt 6. Through this structure, the automatic operation of loading and unloading the workpiece 7 is completed, and the grinding mechanism 3 is cooperated to realize the streamlined operation, which greatly improves the work efficiency. In the process of loading and unloading materials by the clamping robot, the cylinder 2 411 will drive the slider 412 to move on the vertical guide rail 410, so that when the two vertical plates 413 cooperate with the arc clamping plate 414 to clamp the workpiece 7 and move, it can avoid the friction between the bottom of the workpiece 7 and the turntable 2, the feed conveyor belt 5 and the discharge conveyor belt 6 to cause damage. By arranging a rubber workstation seat 202 on the top of the turntable 2, the stability of the workpiece 7 during the grinding process can be enhanced, and the vibration generated by the polishing wheel 314 during operation can be avoided to drive the workpiece 7 to shake, affect the polishing quality, and further cause adverse effects on the overall performance of the workpiece 7. When the polishing wheel 314 is grinding the top plane of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, the turntable 2 The movable plate 308 drives the second fixed sleeve 320 on the second support arm 319 to rotate, so that the second fixed frame 323 drives the polishing piece on the rotating frame 324 to rotate together. Because the rotating frame 324 is rotatably connected with the second fixed frame 323 through the rotating shaft 325, and the guide block 326 set at one end of one of the rotating shafts 325 slides along the guide groove 306, when the guide block 326 slides horizontally along the valleys and peaks in the guide groove 306, the rotating frame 324 carries the polishing piece to perform rounded polishing on both sides of the valleys and peaks of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, and when the guide block 326 slides along the inclined surface in the guide groove 306, the rotating frame 324 drives the polishing piece to rotate accordingly. Correspondingly, the two sides of the inclined surface of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7 are rounded and polished. This mechanism further realizes the rough polishing of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, reducing the pressure on the staff. Since the polishing belt 331 is set on the triangular mounting frame 330, when the cylinder 1 302 drives the L-shaped connecting plate 303 to descend, the bottom center part of the polishing belt 331 directly contacts the plane of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, and the two sides of the bottom of the polishing belt 331 are lower than the plane of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7, so that the polishing belt 331 can not only further process the workpiece 7 polished by the polishing wheel 314, but also grind and polish the edge line of the toothed area of ​​the workpiece 7.
