Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of aircraft casing processing, and particularly relates to a method for selecting non-uniform clamping positions of split casings. BACKGROUND
[0002] A split casing is assembled by two split casing parts using bolts. During cutting processing, the general tool clamping position is uniformly distributed, which leads to the weak link of the clamping position of the connecting part of the two split casing parts, i.e. the horizontal mounting edge position of the two split casing parts. Vibration is generated during processing, and the processing process is unstable. Irregular vibration is generated when turning to the horizontal mounting edge position, and the tool is allowed to pass when milling to the mounting edge position, which causes the deformation of the final product at the mounting edge position to exceed the design requirement. SUMMARY
[0003] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present application provides a method for selecting non-uniform clamping positions of split casings. The method determines the non-uniform clamping positions of split casings through finite element simulation.
[0004] A method for selecting non-uniform clamping positions of split casings, comprising the following steps:
[0005] Step 1: Establishing a finite element simulation model
[0006] According to the actual size of the casing part and the horizontal mounting edge position, a three-dimensional model of finite element simulation is established to ensure that the part size, material and real part of the three-dimensional model are consistent;
[0007] Step 2: Preliminary determination of part non-uniform clamping position
[0008] According to the position of the horizontal mounting edge of the casing part, two clamping positions are respectively arranged on the split casing parts on both sides of the horizontal mounting edge of the casing part according to the principle of strengthening the strength of the horizontal mounting edge position, and the rest of the circumference of the casing part is uniformly distributed with other clamping positions;
[0009] Step 3: Finite element simulation analysis
[0010] According to the established three-dimensional model and clamping position, the stability of cutting and the deformation of the casing part under the simulated processing state are simulated;
[0011] Step 4: Iterative optimization of clamping position
[0012] According to the simulation results, the clamping position is adjusted, and the best state is iteratively optimized;
[0013] Step 5: Tool manufacturing and test verification
[0014] According to the optimized clamping position, the manufacturing and test verification of the tool are completed.
[0015] In the step 1, the three-dimensional model is modeled and assembled to the upper and lower part of the casing part, so as to accurately simulate the connection of the horizontal installation edge of the part.
[0016] In the step 2, the vertical distance between the two clamping positions respectively arranged on the split casing part on both sides of the horizontal installation edge of the casing part is 13-15mm.
[0017] In the step 3, the stability of cutting and the deformation of the part are embodied in the deformation amount of the horizontal installation edge and the roundness deformation amount of the casing part.
[0018] In the step 4, the optimal state of iterative optimization is that the roundness deformation amount of the casing part is controlled within 0.05mm, and the deformation amount of the horizontal installation edge is controlled within 0.01mm; if the simulation result exceeds the deformation amount control value, the clamping positions on both sides of the horizontal installation edge of the casing part are not moved, the clamping positions of other parts of the part are adjusted, and the simulation analysis of the step 3 is performed again until the simulation result meets the deformation amount requirement.
[0019] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:
[0020] The present method determines the non-uniform eight clamping position points of the split casing through finite element simulation, sets two clamping positions on both sides of the horizontal installation edge, sets the remaining four clamping positions uniformly on the remaining parts of the casing part, and verifies through on-site production, thereby improving the part processing efficiency and quality, controlling the part deformation, controlling the deformation amount of the horizontal installation edge within 0.1mm, and meeting the design drawing requirements in a free state.
[0021] The method of the present application can be applied to the selection of clamping positions when the part is a split casing. Since the horizontal installation edge is a weak point of the part, it is strengthened during clamping to ensure the processing stability. After applying the method, the reliability of the split casing clamping can be ensured, the part deformation can be controlled, and the product in a free state can meet the design requirements.
