For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0026] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Figure 1 This is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of the clamping state of the tooling of this application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of the tooling in the loosened state of the present application, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a tool for machining planetary gears is shown, comprising: a slider 4, which can be slidably mounted in a tool body, and a bracket 3 is mounted on one end of the slider 4; a plurality of clamping arms 7, one end of which is rotatably mounted on the bracket 3, and the other end of which can be clamped on the back cone surface of the planetary gear blank as the slider moves;

[0028] Specifically, the slider 4 is usually set to move in the horizontal direction. Of course, it can also be set to move vertically or at any angle to the horizontal direction. The slider 4 is installed on / in the support body 2 to support the slider 4 to move back and forth. The support body 2 is installed on the tooling shell 5. The bracket 3 can be set as a whole with the slider 4, and can also be installed on the slider 4 by screws. The bracket 3 has branch parts extending in all directions for installing the clamping arm 7. The bracket 3 has branch parts corresponding to the number of the clamping arms 7. The clamping arm 7 can be rotatably mounted on the bracket 3 through a cylindrical pin 9.

[0029] The clamping arm 7 has one end connected to the branch portion of the bracket 3 and the other end is provided with a portion for holding the blank 8.

[0030] In some embodiments, when the bracket 3 and the slider 4 are separately provided, the bracket 3 and the support body 2, the bracket 3 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the extension portion 41 of the slider 4. Specifically, the support body 2 can be a separate component, such as a connecting plate structure with a hole in the middle for carrying the sliding block 4, the connecting plate connects the tooling housing 5 with the flange 1, and the flange 1 is installed on the main shaft of the lathe. In some embodiments, the tooth mold 6, the clamping arm 7 is arranged around the tooth mold 6, and can cooperate with the clamping end of the clamping arm 7 to fix the blank.

[0031] In some embodiments, an extension portion 41 is provided at one end of the slider 4 close to the tooth mold 6 , and the extension portion 41 can extend into the tooth mold 6 .

[0032] In some embodiments, the clamping arm 7 is provided with a curved guide structure 71, and a positioning guide column 72 is installed in the guide structure 71, and the slider 4 moves back and forth so that the clamping end of the clamping arm 7 clamps or releases the blank. Specifically, the guide structure 71 has a suitable length, and the guide structure 71 is a guide hole or slot structure, and the guide structure 71 has a hole or slot inclined from the clamping end to the mounting end mounted on the bracket 3, or the guide structure 71 is divided into two straight slots / holes, which are at an angle of 110 to 160 degrees to each other and have a circular arc transition, so that the front clamping arm of the mechanism presses the blank, and the rear clamping arm of the mechanism pulls and releases the blank, which can facilitate the drilling of the blank and the rough and fine turning of the spherical surface, inner hole and other processes, thereby improving efficiency.

[0033] In some embodiments, the clamping arm 7 is L-shaped or approximately L-shaped. Specifically, the clamping end of the clamping arm is approximately L-shaped or approximately L-shaped with the main body of the supporting arm 7. Generally, the clamping arm 7 can be set to 2-8, or more.

[0034] In some embodiments, the tooth mold 6 has a clamping portion 61 that is clamped on the tooth surface of the planetary gear blank 8; and has a through hole a62 that accommodates the extension portion 41, and the through hole a62 is directly opposite to the center position of the planetary gear blank 8, and a cavity 63 is formed inside the tooth mold 6 to connect the through hole a62 with the clamping portion 61.

[0035] In some embodiments, a through hole b42 is defined in the extension portion 41 , and the through hole b42 passes through the slider 4 .

[0036] In some embodiments, the slider 4 is further provided with a driving member 10 for driving the slider 4 to move.

[0037] In some embodiments, the driving member 10 is further provided with a through hole c101 connected to the through hole a62.

[0038] Specifically, the through hole a62, the through hole b42, and the through hole c101 are interconnected and coaxially arranged. High-pressure fluid is introduced into the through hole c101 to discharge the planetary gear processing. At the same time, a chip groove 64 is also provided on the peripheral wall of the tooth mold 6. The number of the chip grooves 64 can be 1-5 to solve the problem of chip removal of iron chips during processing.

[0039] Through the tooling of the technical solution of the present application, when the slider 4 moves in the direction away from the tooth die 6, the clamping arm 7 can completely move out of the back cone surface to be processed of the blank. At this time, the tailstock top of the equipment is tightened to complete the processing of the back cone surface of the blank; after the processing of the back cone surface of the blank is completed, when the driving member 10 drives the slider 4 to slide in the direction of the tooth die 6, the clamping arm 7 clamps the back cone surface of the blank, and after the tailstock of the equipment retreats, the drilling of the blank, rough and fine turning of the inner hole of the spherical surface and other processes can be completed. The original "drilling - turning back cone - turning inner hole, spherical surface" at least three processes are reduced to one clamping, which greatly shortens the time for loading and unloading workpieces and reduces the labor intensity of manual labor.

[0040] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present application. Although the present application has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment as above, it is not intended to limit the present application. Any technician familiar with this patent can make some changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments of the technical contents suggested above without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention. However, any simple modification, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present application without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present application are still within the scope of the present application.
