Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of positioning technology, and more particularly to a positioning tool. Background Art
[0002] During the heating and cooling process of heat treatment, the size and shape of steel parts will change to varying degrees under the combined effect of thermal stress and structural stress. The inconsistent structural transformation of various parts of the parts and the asynchrony of thermal expansion and contraction will generally cause different degrees and forms of distortion of the workpiece after heat treatment, such as expansion or contraction of the outer diameter or inner diameter, bending of the rod or shaft, distortion of the plate or disc, etc., which often require static load correction.
[0003] There is a weak link in the calibration process after heat treatment in the workshop. In the actual production process, the operator can only observe the calibration degree with the naked eye and repeatedly calibrate - measure - calibrate. The operation is difficult. In addition, when mass-producing parts, the time cost is high and the one-time calibration pass rate is low, resulting in a waste of time and personnel.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a positioning tool that is easy to operate and improves work efficiency is a technical problem that technical personnel in this field urgently need to solve. Summary of the invention

[0043] The embodiment of the present invention discloses a positioning tool, wherein an upper beam 101 of a press is connected to a hydraulic cylinder 102, comprising:
[0044] A scale 1, the scale 1 is connected to the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102, and the length of the scale 1 extends along the length of the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102;
[0045] The pointing structure is connected to the upper beam 101 , and the pointing end of the pointing structure is close to the scale line of the scale 1 .
[0046] Here’s how this application works:
[0047] S1, first install the first part on the V-shaped iron at the bottom of the press (this process is a common operation for presses);
[0048] S2, during the static load correction operation, the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102 is controlled to move downward so that the free end of the piston rod 103 acts on the high point of the part deformation, and when the free end of the piston rod 103 just touches the high point of the part deformation, the initial scale indicated by the pointing end in the pointing structure on the scale 1 is recorded, and then the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102 is continued to be controlled to move downward so that the pressure of the piston rod 103 acts on the high point of the part deformation, and the correction is performed by maintaining this pressure for a certain period of time;
[0049] S3, during the calibration process of the press, the scale 1 moves downward with the piston rod 103, and the pointing end of the pointing structure can clearly indicate the last position of the scale 1 during the calibration operation. At this time, the last scale indicated by the pointing end of the pointing structure on the scale 1 is recorded;
[0050] S4, repeat steps S2-S3 several times until the first part meets the size requirement. At this time, record the position indicated by the pointing end in the pointing structure on the scale 1 when the first part is qualified, and mark this position on the scale 1 as the reference line. When the deformation amounts of multiple parts in the same heat treatment furnace tend to be consistent, the remaining products are installed on the V-shaped iron at the bottom of the press in turn, and the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102 is controlled to move downward at one time in turn. When the pointing end in the pointing structure directly points to the reference line on the scale 1, stop driving the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102 to press downward, and finally the corrected parts can be obtained in turn.
[0051] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the pointing structure includes:
[0052] A vertical rod 21, the vertical rod 21 is vertically connected to the upper beam 101, and is spaced apart and arranged in parallel with the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102;
[0053] A cross bar 22, the cross bar 22 is arranged perpendicular to the vertical bar 21, and one end of the cross bar 22 is connected to the vertical bar 21;
[0054] The pointer 23 is the pointing end in the pointing structure and is connected to an end of the horizontal rod 22 away from the vertical rod 21 .
[0055] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the vertical rod 21 is connected to the upper beam 101 through the magnet 3.
[0056] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the cross bar 22 is connected to the vertical bar 21 through a locking structure 4 , and the cross bar 22 is positioned on the vertical bar 21 through the locking structure 4 .
[0057] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the locking structure 4 includes:
[0058] A "U"-shaped clip 41, and a limiting groove is provided on the inner wall of the closed end of the "U"-shaped clip 41, and the "U"-shaped clip 41 is clamped on the vertical rod 21 through its limiting groove, and the "U"-shaped clip 41 can reciprocate along the axial direction of the vertical rod 21;
[0059] A first-step stepped shaft 42, and both clamp arms of the "U"-shaped clamp 41 are penetrated with light holes, and the two light holes are arranged concentrically, the free ends of the small diameter shaft section of the first-step stepped shaft 42 pass through the two light holes respectively, and the shaft shoulder of the first-step stepped shaft 42 abuts on the corresponding clamp arm, the diameter of the large diameter shaft section of the first-step stepped shaft 42 is larger than the aperture of the light hole, and one end of the cross bar 22 is vertically connected to the large diameter shaft section of the first-step stepped shaft 42;
[0060] The first nut 43 is threadedly connected to the free end of the small-diameter shaft section of the first-step stepped shaft 42 so as to locate the position of the “U”-shaped clip 41 on the vertical rod 21 by tightening the first nut 43 .
[0061] Specifically: when the first nut 43 is loosened, the clamping force of the "U"-shaped clamp 41 relative to the vertical rod 21 can be removed. At this time, the "U"-shaped clamp 41 can be pushed upward or downward, thereby driving the cross bar 22 to move synchronously, so as to adjust the position of the pointer 23 connected to the cross bar 22, so that the pointer 23 can be within the measuring range of the scale 1.
[0062] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the first nut 43 is a nut with a plum blossom handle 53 .
[0063] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the pointer 23 is detachably connected to the cross bar 22 via the connecting structure 5 .
[0064] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the connection structure 5 includes:
[0065] Screw;
[0066] A joint 51, the joint 51 is connected to an end of the cross bar 22 away from the vertical bar 21, and has a threaded through hole;

[0068] Specifically, when the handle 53 is screwed, the screw rod can be screwed, and the screw rod can be screwed out of the threaded through hole of the connector 51 , so that the adapter 52 can be removed from the screw rod, so that the pointer 23 can be replaced easily.
[0069] A clamping hole is formed at the bottom of the adapter 52 , and an end of the pointer 23 away from the tip thereof is clamped in the clamping hole.
[0070] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the tip of the pointer 23 is close to and points to the scale line on the scale 1.
[0071] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, the scale 1 is bonded to the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102, so that the scale 1 can be removed from the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102 without damaging the piston rod 103 of the hydraulic cylinder 102, so that when the present application is not in use, the scale 1 can be removed, so that the press can perform other work.
