Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of bearing processing, in particular to a processing and manufacturing method of a flange-shaped special-shaped bearing ring. BACKGROUND

[0002] Flange bearing is a special designed bearing, which is characterized by having a flange on the outer ring. This design not only enhances the structural strength of the bearing, but also facilitates installation and positioning. Due to the effect of the flange, the bearing can withstand large axial, radial load and torque, and can be widely used in high load and high speed running mechanical equipment.

[0003] In the field of aerospace, special-shaped bearings need to meet the harsh conditions of lightweight, high temperature resistance, high strength, etc. In addition to the field of aerospace, special-shaped bearings are also widely used in other industrial fields that require high precision and special structure, such as precision machinery, medical devices, automobile manufacturing, etc. The difficulty of design and processing lies in the following aspects:

[0004] 1. High precision requirement: Special-shaped bearings, especially those with flanges and other special structures, have very high requirements on size, shape and position tolerances, and position. Due to the reasons of structural special shape and heat treatment deformation, it is difficult for traditional processing technology to ensure the processing precision at the same time.

[0005] 2. Machining reference problem: For special-shaped bearings, due to their special external structure, they cannot be machined by using the ordinary method of taking the end face and outer diameter as the machining reference. Therefore, special machining process and machining tooling must be designed to solve this problem.

[0006] 3. Structural complexity: Special-shaped bearings contain installation and positioning structures perpendicular to the outer cylindrical surface of the outer ring, pin holes and other special design elements, which increase the complexity and processing difficulty of the bearing.

[0007] Therefore, we are committed to developing a special-shaped bearing ring and solving the problem of slotting machining. SUMMARY

[0008] The present application discloses a processing and manufacturing method of a flange-shaped special-shaped bearing ring, which aims to solve the technical problems of developing a special-shaped bearing ring and solving the problem of slotting machining.

[0009] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present application adopts the following technical scheme:

[0010] The application discloses a processing and manufacturing method of a flange-shaped special-shaped bearing ring, and belongs to the technical field of bearing manufacturing.

[0011] The method comprises the following specific steps:

[0012] S1, turning: turning the approximate shape of the bearing;

[0013] S2, soft grinding of double end faces: soft grinding of the double end faces is performed by using soft abrasives;

[0014] S3, soft grinding of an outer circle: soft grinding of the outer circle is performed by using soft abrasives;

[0015] S4, turning of a large hole;

[0016] S5, turning of an inner and outer corner;

[0017] S6, turning of a small outer circle and a base surface;

[0018] S7, turning of a small outer corner;

[0019] S8, turning of a circular-arc shoulder: turning of a circular-arc shoulder is performed;

[0020] S9, heat treatment;

[0021] S10, lapping of two end faces;

[0022] S11, coarse grinding of a large outer circle;

[0023] S12, coarse grinding of a small outer circle and a base surface;

[0024] S13, fine grinding of a small outer circle and a base surface;

[0025] S14, grinding of a hole;

[0026] S15, coarse grinding of a raceway: coarse grinding of the inner wall of the raceway is performed by using coarse abrasives;

[0027] S16, fine grinding of a raceway: fine grinding of the inner wall of the raceway is performed by using fine abrasives;

[0028] S17, fine grinding of a raceway: fine grinding of the inner wall of the raceway is performed by using finer abrasives;

[0029] S18, fine grinding of a small outer circle and a base surface: the small outer circle and the base surface are simultaneously ground by using a profiled grinding wheel, and the chamfer of the grinding wheel is the same as the radius of the circular-arc shoulder;

[0030] S19: Insert auxiliary fixture: Place the ring on the auxiliary fixture;

[0031] S20: Grinding U-groove: To process the U-groove, adjust the angle of the grinding wheel to be perpendicular to the workpiece, and dress the diameter of the grinding wheel to be the same as the diameter of the U-groove. Grind by feeding left and right to complete the processing of the U-groove. During processing, a square groove is opened on the base plate to prevent the grinding wheel from interfering with the workpiece.

[0032] S21: Grinding arc grooves: To process arc grooves, adjust the angle of the grinding wheel to be parallel to the workpiece, feed left and right to grind, dress the diameter of the grinding wheel to be the same as the diameter of the arc, feed left and right to grind, and complete the processing of the arc surface.

[0033] S22: Grinding the large outer diameter: Using special tooling and centerless grinding, the large outer diameter is ground.

[0034] S23: Tempering;

[0035] S24: Fine grinding groove: Grinding the inner wall of the raceway using finer abrasives.

[0036] To prevent burrs from forming at the connection between the flange end face and the small outer circle during grinding, a square shoulder is normally machined for the flange bearing, as shown in the figure. However, since this bearing has U-shaped grooves and arc-shaped grooves, machining the shoulder can cause the flange to deform or even break due to insufficient strength. Therefore, to increase the bearing strength, the square shoulder is designed as an arc-shaped shoulder to avoid breakage at the connection between the flange end face and the small outer circle. However, because the current structure is an arc-shaped shoulder, burrs will be generated if the small outer circle and the base surface are rough ground in two separate passes. Therefore, an improvement is made. The improved design uses a shaped grinding wheel with the same chamfer radius as the arc-shaped shoulder. This allows for simultaneous grinding of the small outer circle and the base surface while ensuring grinding accuracy. Thus, by improving both the bearing design and the machining process, the two major effects of enhancing bearing strength and ensuring machining accuracy can be achieved simultaneously.

[0038] The highest point of the arc end is located inside the small outer circle, and the sphere moves and fits inside the raceway.

[0081] S17: fine grinding of a raceway: fine grinding of the inner wall of the raceway 6 is performed by using finer abrasives;

[0082] S18: fine grinding of a small outer circle and a base surface: the small outer circle 1 and the base surface are simultaneously ground by using a profiled grinding wheel, and the chamfer of the grinding wheel is the same as the chamfer radius of the circular-arc-shaped shoulder 5;

[0083] S19: Put the ring on the auxiliary tool;

[0084] S20: Grind the U-shaped groove: process the U-shaped groove 4, adjust the angle of the grinding wheel to be perpendicular to the workpiece, trim the diameter of the grinding wheel to be the same as the diameter of the U-shaped groove 4, left and right feed grinding, complete the processing of the U-shaped groove, and when processing, a square groove is opened on the bottom plate to prevent the grinding wheel from interfering with the workpiece;

[0085] S21: Grind the circular arc groove: process the circular arc groove 3, adjust the angle of the grinding wheel to be parallel to the workpiece, left and right feed grinding, trim the diameter of the grinding wheel to be the same as the diameter of the circular arc, left and right feed grinding, and complete the processing of the circular arc surface;

[0087] S23: Annealing;

[0088] S24: Fine grinding: use finer abrasives to grind the inner wall of the raceway 6. In order to prevent burrs from occurring at the junction of the flange end surface 2 and the small outer circle 1 during grinding, the flange bearing normally needs to be processed with a square shoulder, as shown in Figure 1 However, due to the presence of the U-shaped groove 4 and the circular arc groove 3 in this bearing, processing the shoulder may cause the flange to be too weak and deform or even break. Therefore, in order to increase the strength of the bearing, the square shoulder is designed as a circular arc shoulder 5, which can prevent the junction of the flange end surface 2 and the small outer circle 1 from breaking. However, because the current structure is a circular arc shoulder 5, if the small outer circle and the base surface are processed in two passes, burrs will occur. Therefore, improvements are made. After the improvement, a profiled grinding wheel is used, and the chamfer angle of the grinding wheel is the same as the radius of the circular arc shoulder 5. Therefore, the small outer circle and the base surface can be ground simultaneously, and the grinding accuracy is guaranteed. In this way, through the improvement of bearing design and processing flow, the strength of the bearing is increased and the processing accuracy is guaranteed.

[0089] Referring to Figure 6 In a preferred embodiment, the raceway diameter measuring mechanism includes two measuring claws 7, and the top ends of the two measuring claws 7 are respectively provided with circular arc end heads 9, and each circular arc end head 9 is movably connected with a ball 8.

[0090] Referring to Figure 6 In a preferred embodiment, the highest point of the circular arc end head 9 is located in the small outer circle 1, and the ball 8 is movably attached to the raceway 6. Since the distance between the raceway position of this bearing and the bearing bottom surface is relatively close, the conventional measurement method cannot achieve measurement. Figure 5As shown, therefore, the measuring tool is improved, and when the measuring tool is measured by the measuring claw 7 before the improvement, the measuring claw 7 has to protrude the bearing end face when the measuring head contacts the raceway 6, but the bearing is of a semi-closed type, the measuring claw 7 cannot protrude the bearing end face, and thus the measurement cannot be realized. After the improvement, the circular arc end head 9 is added, the circular arc end head 9 is in a circular arc type, and the highest point is lower than the sphere 8, which can effectively avoid the problem of interference between the measuring head end face and the bearing bottom face, and realize the measurement of the raceway 6.

[0091] With reference to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In a preferred embodiment, the auxiliary tool comprises a base 13, and the inner wall of the top end of the base 13 is provided with a threaded groove 15, a plurality of screw holes 17 and an inner hole 16, the inner hole 16 is located at the center position of the threaded groove 15, and the plurality of screw holes 17 are located between the threaded groove 15 and the inner hole 16.

[0092] With reference to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In a preferred embodiment, the threaded groove 15 is engaged with an externally threaded extension plate 14, and the top end of the externally threaded extension plate 14 is fixedly connected with a cover plate 11, and the plurality of screw holes 17 are simultaneously provided on the cover plate 11.

[0093] With reference to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In a preferred embodiment, one side of the cover plate 11 is provided with a slot 12, the bottom end of the cover plate 11 is fixedly connected with a center cylinder 18, and the center cylinder 18 is located in the inner hole 16, and each screw hole 17 is engaged with a fixed screw 10 respectively.

[0094] With reference to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In a preferred embodiment, S19 comprises the following specific steps:

[0095] S191: first install the sleeve ring in the inner hole 16 of the base 13, and the diameter of the inner hole 16 is matched with the diameter of the small outer circle 1 of the sleeve ring;

[0096] S192: install the cover plate 11 in the bearing hole, and the diameter of the center cylinder 18 is matched with the inner hole of the sleeve ring;

[0097] S193: install three fixed screws 10 in threaded holes 17, to achieve grinding U-shaped groove 4 and circular arc groove 3, a special tool needs to be processed, the first step is to install the ring in the inner hole 16 of the base 13, the diameter of the inner hole 16 is matched with the diameter of the small outer circle 1, the outer diameter is the same as the large outer circle, and the width is the same as the small outer circle 1, the second step is to install the cover plate 11 in the bearing hole, the diameter of the center cylinder 18 is matched with the inner hole of the ring, the base is provided with a threaded groove 15, and the outer thread extension plate 14 is provided with an outer thread, the cover plate 11 and the base 13 are fixed to each other by rotating the threaded way, and the function of fixing the bearing end surface is realized, the third step is to install three fixed screws 10 in threaded holes 17, to prevent the cover plate 11 and the base 13 from loosening during processing, wherein the cover plate 11 is provided with a slot, which can avoid interference when grinding the circular arc groove 3 of the ring, and the base 13 is an equilateral triangle, which cooperates with the fixed jaw of the machine tool, and can effectively prevent the workpiece and the tool from rotating and colliding during grinding.

[0098] Referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 In a preferred embodiment, the special tool includes a limiting ring sleeve 19, the inner diameter of the limiting ring sleeve 19 is the same as the small outer circle 1, the outer diameter is the same as the large outer circle, and the width is the same as the small outer circle 1, the inner wall of the limiting ring sleeve 19 is clamped with the special-shaped bearing ring, there is a circular arc surface and a U-shaped groove 4 on the large outer circle, so the outer circle is not complete, in the conventional grinding mode, the grinding wheel and the guide wheel have extrusion force on the outer ring, the edge of the groove will directly collide with the grinding wheel, causing scrap, therefore, a special tool needs to be added on the small outer circle 1, the inner diameter of the tool is the same as the small outer circle 1, the outer diameter is the same as the large outer circle, and the width is the same as the small outer circle 1, the cutting force during grinding can be evenly distributed on the flange outer circle and the tool outer circle surface, without collision phenomenon, the outer diameter of the auxiliary tool is the same as the outer diameter of the flange before grinding, and the inner hole diameter of the tool and the small outer circle outer diameter of the ring are divided into several grades and transitionally matched, to prevent the ring and the tool from sliding with each other, by using the improved process and tooling, the roundness of the raceway of the special-shaped flange ring can be guaranteed within 0.8μm, the roughness is within 0.032μm, and the cylindricity of the outer circle is within 1.5μm.

[0099] Working principle: in order to prevent burrs from being generated at the connection between the flange end surface 2 and the small outer circle 1 during grinding, the flange bearing needs to be processed with a square shoulder under normal circumstances, such as Figure 1The flange strength is too low and deformed or even broken when the blade shoulder is machined due to the U-shaped groove 4 and the circular-arc-shaped groove 3 of the bearing, so the square blade shoulder is designed as a circular-arc-shaped blade shoulder 5 to increase the strength of the bearing, so as to avoid the breakage of the connecting part between the flange end surface 2 and the small outer circle 1, but because the structure is a circular-arc-shaped blade shoulder 5, burrs will be generated if the small outer circle and the base surface are machined in two passes, so the forming grinding wheel is used after improvement, the chamfer angle of the grinding wheel is the same as the radius of the circular-arc-shaped blade shoulder 5, so the small outer circle and the base surface can be ground at the same time, and the grinding precision is ensured. Thus, through the improvement of the bearing design and the improvement of the machining process, the two effects of strengthening the bearing strength and ensuring the machining precision can be achieved at the same time. In order to grind the U-shaped groove 4 and the circular-arc-shaped groove 3, a special tooling is needed. First, the ring is installed in the inner hole 16 of the base 13, the diameter of the inner hole 16 is matched with the diameter of the small outer circle 1 of the ring, second, the cover plate 11 is installed in the bearing hole, the diameter of the center cylinder 18 is matched with the inner hole of the ring, the base is provided with a threaded groove 15, the outer thread extension plate 14 is provided with an outer thread, the cover plate 11 and the base 13 are fixed to each other by rotating the thread, which also fixes the end surface of the bearing, third, the three fixing screws 10 are installed in the threaded holes 17 to prevent the cover plate 11 and the base 13 from loosening during machining. The cover plate 11 is provided with a slot to avoid interference when machining the circular-arc-shaped groove 3 of the ring. The base 13 is an equilateral triangle, which cooperates with the fixed jaw of the machine tool to effectively prevent the workpiece and the tooling from rotating during grinding. Because the circular-arc-shaped groove 3 and the U-shaped groove 4 require a 90° angle, a mechanism is designed to ensure the angle. After the cover plate 11 is slotted, a positioning pin hole is punched at the 90° position. The diameter of the positioning pin hole and the positioning pin is the same as the diameter of the U-shaped groove 4. After the U-shaped groove 4 is machined, the position of the U-shaped groove 4 is aligned with the positioning pin hole. After the cover plate 11 contacts with the outer ring, the cover plate 11 and the outer ring are connected by installing the positioning pin, which also fixes the position of the outer ring. After fixing, the position to be machined is at 90° with the U-shaped groove 4. The roughness of the circular-arc surface and the U-shaped groove 4 machined in this way can reach 0.25μm, and the curvature tolerance can be within 0.02mm. If the circular-arc surface and the U-shaped groove 4 are turned directly, the precision cannot reach the precision of grinding, which is only the precision and tolerance of turning. If the groove is turned first, the structure strength is low, which is prone to deformation during heat treatment and difficult to position during grinding, causing the problem of being unable to machine. After the groove is machined, the edge of the groove will have grinding burrs, and the flange will be deformed by grinding, so the small outer circle and the large outer circle need to be re-grounded. The small outer circle is ground by a forming grinding wheel.
