Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention specifically relates to a planar scroll spring tightening device and method. Background Art

[0002] Planar spiral springs (referred to as spiral springs) have the advantages of small axial dimensions and large storage torque, and are increasingly widely used in aerospace organizations. Generally, after the parameters of the spiral spring are designed, when the spiral spring torque is large, it is impossible to directly wind the spiral spring by manpower. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the inner diameter of the spring box according to the outer diameter of the spiral spring in the free state. The inner diameter of the spring box is required to be larger than the outer diameter of the spiral spring in the free state, so that the spiral spring can be loaded into the spring box with less effort, and then wound to the working position. In special cases, due to space limitations, when the size of the spring box cannot be enlarged, before the spiral spring is loaded into the spring box, it is necessary to roll the finished spiral spring into a small outer diameter on the spring coiling machine, and then use iron wire to bind it. During installation, the entire spring is loaded into the spring box, and then the iron wire is cut to complete the assembly.

[0003] However, when used in the aerospace field, the size of the spring box cannot be made larger due to extreme space limitations. If the solution of winding the spring on a spring winding machine and then binding it with wire is adopted, there are the following disadvantages: 1. Since the spring has a large stored force, the wire can easily scratch the spring and cause excess material. 2. Coiled springs generally require special surface treatment, such as anti-cold welding. If they are wound on a spring winding machine, there is a risk of contaminating the surface of the parts and uncontrollable risks. 3. During assembly, the spring needs to be loaded into the spring box multiple times, and it is not a one-time operation. There is a step of taking it out during the process. If a spring winding machine is used to wind the spring, the assembly cycle will be extended.

[0004] In summary, the existing coil spring prolongs the production cycle when it is taken out; when it is loaded into the spring box, the coil spring is easily scratched, resulting in excess and making it difficult to perform surface treatment on the coil spring. Summary of the invention

The upper end of the sliding pin 602 is connected to the lower surface of the sliding pin lower cover plate 604, and the sliding pin 602 is located at the lower part of the sliding pin lower cover plate 604. The sliding pin upper cover plate 603 and the sliding pin lower cover plate 604 are respectively located at the upper and lower sides of the spanner straight slot hole 501, which are used to limit the tilt of the sliding pin stop 601, so that it can translate along the spanner straight slot hole 501, and keep the sliding pin 602 always downward, and will not be disengaged from the coil spring 12 or cause it to get stuck when rotating. The sliding pin 602 is used to cooperate with the coil spring external interface 1201; the sliding pin stop 601 slides along the coil spring spanner 5 and drives the sliding pin 602 to tighten the coil spring 12.

[0053] One end of the handle 506 is connected to the side of any of the three flat plates 505, and is used to push the closed triangular wrench to rotate along the wrench shaft 4, forming a sliding friction rotation pair; at the same time, the sliding pin column 602 is translated along the wrench straight slot hole 501. When the coil spring 12 is tightened, the sliding pin upper cover plate 603, the sliding pin stop 601 and the sliding pin lower cover plate 604 can slide along the wrench straight slot hole 501 to adapt to the change in the outer diameter of the coil spring 12.

[0054] The connecting piece 902 is a cylindrical structure, in which a limiting blind hole matching the lower end of the coil spring shaft 13 is arranged; the lower end of the coil spring shaft 13 passes through the inner bottom of the spring box 11 and is connected to the connecting piece 902 through the limiting blind hole; the limiting assembly 10 includes two limiting posts arranged on the inner bottom of the spring box seat 1; one end of the protrusion 901 is connected to the outer side wall of the connecting piece 902, and the other end is arranged between the two limiting posts to limit the rotation of the coil spring shaft 13. In this embodiment, the two limiting posts are made of soft material copper alloy H62.

[0055] In this embodiment, the fixing assembly 7 is composed of two pads 2, a horizontal plate 3 and a spanner shaft 4.

[0056] Preferably, a wrench side hole 504 is provided at the other end of the handle 506, and wrench side holes 504 are provided at both ends of the flat plate 505 connected to the handle 506. The wrench side hole 504 is used to install a push rod to lengthen the operator's force arm, forming a lever, which is convenient for rotation and can also make the operator more labor-saving; a threaded hole 503 is provided on the flat plate 505 corresponding to the wrench straight slot hole 501, away from the end of the flat plate 505 connected to the handle 506, along the axial direction of the wrench straight slot hole 501; the sliding push rod 8 is used to pass through the threaded hole 503 and abut against the sliding pin stop 601.

[0057] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the present invention is based on the planar scroll spring tightening method of the planar scroll spring tightening device, and the specific steps are as follows:

[0058] 1] Assemble the spring box seat 1, the spring box 11, the winding spring shaft connecting assembly 9 and the winding spring shaft 13;

[0059] 1.1. Connect the two limit posts to the bottom plate 101 of the spring box seat 1 with screws;

[0060] 1.2. Pass the lower end of the coil spring shaft 13 through the spring box 11 and connect it to the connecting piece 902, then connect the spring box 11 to the bottom plate 101 of the spring box seat 1, and make the protrusion 901 located between the two limit posts;

[0061] 2] Install the coil spring 12 on the upper end of the spring box 11, and clamp the inner interface 1202 of the coil spring with the upper end of the coil spring shaft 13 through the arc-shaped coil spring shaft notch 1301. The outer interface 1201 of the coil spring does not overlap with the spring box notch 1101 in the radial direction and the circumferential direction before entering the box, and is in a free state; in other embodiments, if the coil spring 12 is designed to be tightened by rotating clockwise, it is only necessary to turn the upper and lower surfaces of the coil spring 12 upside down when installing it, and the device can be used to connect with the coil spring 12;

[0062] 3] Install the fixing assembly 7, the coil spring wrench 5 and the tightening assembly 6;

[0063] 3.1. Connect the wrench shaft 4 to the horizontal plate 3, and then fit the coil spring wrench 5 with the wrench shaft 4 through the wrench center hole 502 and fix it with a nut to form a rotating pair;

[0064] 3.2. Fix the entire horizontal plate 3 to the upper end of the spring box seat 1 through the pad column 2;

[0065] 3.3. Pass the sliding pin stop 601 through the spanner straight slot hole 501, and connect the sliding pin upper cover plate 603, the sliding pin lower cover plate 604 and the sliding pin column 602 to the sliding pin stop 601 with screws to form a moving pair, and then screw the sliding push rod 8 into the threaded hole 503 through the thread;

[0067] 4] Insert the push rod into the side hole 504 of the wrench, rotate the coil spring wrench 5, and slide the tightening assembly 6 along the coil spring wrench 5 to tighten the coil spring 12;

[0068] When the coil spring 12 rotates, due to the force of the coil spring 12, the sliding pin 602 can drive the coil spring outer interface 1201 to move radially inward until it is located directly above the spring box notch 1101, and then stops rotating; during the rotation process, if the sliding pin 602 does not slide smoothly due to large resistance, the real-time position of the sliding pin 602 can be adjusted by the sliding push rod 8;

[0069] 5] After the coil spring 12 is tightened, the coil spring 12 is installed into the spring box 11 by external force, and the coil spring outer interface 1201 is snapped into the spring box slot 1101 to complete the coil spring 12 entering the box. At this time, the coil spring outer interface 1201 is snapped into the spring box slot 1101, and the coil spring inner interface 1202 completely falls into the bottom of the coil spring shaft slot 1301; at this time, the spring box 11, coil spring 12, and coil spring shaft 13 form a whole;

[0070] 6】Remove the flat scroll spring tightening device.

[0071] Remove the planar scroll spring take-up device in sequence and it can be used for the next assembly.

[0072] In this embodiment, the coil spring 12 rotates counterclockwise as the winding direction, and the coil spring wrench 5 also rotates counterclockwise around the wrench shaft 4 to complete the winding. Figure 8 As shown, if the designed parameters of the coil spring 12 are for clockwise winding, the clockwise winding of the coil spring 12 can be completed by installing the coil spring 12 in reverse.

[0073] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
