Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of mechanical processing, and in particular to an auxiliary tooling for a center frame of a thin-wall shell with a large aspect ratio. Background Art
[0002] A thin-walled shell with a large aspect ratio is one of the important parts of a solid rocket engine. The shell has an aspect ratio of 12:1, with large outer diameters at both ends and small outer diameters in the middle. A turning structure is designed in the middle of the shell, and the coaxiality of the turning structure is required to be controlled within φ0.1. Conventional turning of the shell adopts the clamping method of "one clamp and one top" (one end is clamped by a four-jaw chuck and the other end is tightened by a tail top), but the rigidity is poor during turning in the middle, which will cause turning vibration and cannot meet the design and processing requirements of the middle structure. Common large aspect ratio parts in turning, such as crankshafts and transmission shafts, generally add center frame auxiliary support and follower frame auxiliary support on the basis of the "one clamp and one top" clamping method to enhance the stability of the workpiece during processing and avoid turning vibration and deformation. The center frame and follower frame auxiliary supports are rigid supports, requiring the supported position of the workpiece to be a finished surface and have good rigidity. However, the middle part of the shell has poor rigidity after spinning and heat treatment, and has irregular deformation. There is no machining allowance at the supporting position, and a finished surface cannot be formed. This results in the inability to directly use the center stand or follower rest for support during the shell turning process.
[0003] Therefore, a tool is needed that can assist in setting up a center frame to provide additional support when turning the middle structure of the shell. The tool needs to adapt to the irregular deformation of the outer circle of the shell itself, have sufficient rigidity to use the center frame to provide auxiliary support, and cannot cause further deformation of the shell. Summary of the invention

[0015] The steel semicircular ring is a thick-walled semicircular ring; the steel semicircular ring is provided with double rows of radially staggered and evenly distributed threaded holes for installing tightening bolts.
[0016] An auxiliary tooling for a center frame of a thin-walled shell with a large aspect ratio, wherein the aluminum outer bushing is an aluminum thick-walled ring, the aluminum outer bushing is a consumable, and the radial thickness is greater than 20 mm when in use.

By adjusting the tightening bolts on the steel semicircular ring, the rotation axis of the auxiliary tooling for the large aspect ratio thin-walled shell and the center frame can be preliminarily corrected. By turning the outer circle of the aluminum outer bushing, the rotation axis of the auxiliary tooling for the large aspect ratio thin-walled shell and the center frame can be accurately corrected, so that the rotation axis of the auxiliary tooling for the large aspect ratio thin-walled shell and the center frame is highly coaxial with the rotation axis of the shell.
