Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of nut tightening, and in particular to a method and equipment for tightening a nut on a drive axle shaft head. Background Art

[0002] The shaft head nut is located at the wheel end of the drive axle assembly and cooperates with the inner ring of the tapered roller bearing shaft on the outside of the wheel hub assembly. By tightening the shaft head nut, the clearance between the inner and outer bearings of the wheel hub assembly is adjusted to the ideal state and the inner ring of the outer bearing of the wheel hub assembly is prevented from falling out during vehicle operation. Therefore, unlike the tightening of conventional bolts and nuts, its main purpose is not to press the workpiece to prevent it from loosening, but the shaft head nut is to adjust the inner ring of the bearing to the specified position and limit it by pressing.

[0003] Currently, the industry still uses conventional bolt and nut tightening methods: torque control and torque angle methods. The torque control method directly tightens the nut to the set torque, while the torque angle method first tightens the nut to a lower torque and then tightens it to the set angle. After tightening, the wheel hub assembly's torque is tested to see if it meets the requirements. If not, the nut needs to be loosened or tightened based on the operator's experience. The nut is a key safety component of the vehicle, and its tightening torque is generally 800-1200 Nm, which is a relatively high torque. Both tightening schemes rely on torque control to a certain extent, and the set assembly torque is determined by process personnel based on a relatively ideal friction coefficient test. However, for non-precision traditional manufacturing industries, it is difficult to guarantee the stability and consistency of the friction coefficient and product quality of shaft nuts produced by different manufacturers and with different processing technologies. The qualified clearance range of the hub assembly bearing is only 40 microns. Therefore, regardless of the tightening method used in the tightening process, the qualified rate of the torque (the torque in the hub assembly is determined by the bearing clearance, so the torque can basically reflect the qualified degree of the bearing clearance) is still very low. Most of the industry relies on technical workers in key positions to make timely adjustments, resulting in a long process cycle and high dependence on experience.

[0004] For this reason, we propose a method and device for tightening a drive axle shaft head nut. Summary of the Invention

The second driving mechanism drives the shift driven gear 305 to rotate, so that the short key 309 on the rod body 1501 and the key groove 307 of the shift driven gear 305 are misaligned and stored in the annular groove 308. At this time, when the rod body 1501 is extended, the short key 309 is abutted against the end of the annular groove 308, which can drive the first movable plate 16 and the second movable plate 306 to move forward.

[0040] The first driving mechanism includes a torque driven gear 501 fixedly mounted on the side wall of the rotating ring 203, and a torque rotating motor 502 is fixedly connected to the top of the torque supporting plate 201. The output end of the torque rotating motor 502 is fixedly connected to a torque driving gear 503, and the torque driving gear 503 is meshed with the torque driven gear 501.

[0044] A lifting mechanism is provided on the top of the connecting plate 1 and the front connecting plate 11. The lifting mechanism includes a connecting frame 801 fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 1 and the front connecting plate 11, and a hanging connecting head 802 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame 801 to facilitate lifting the entire tightening equipment.

[0045] Working principle: When in use, first, the servo electric cylinder 15 is in a retracted state, and the shift drive motor 601 controls the shift active gear 602 to rotate, so that the key slot 307 of the shift driven gear 305 is aligned with the short key 309 on the rod body 1501, so that the rod body 1501 can freely pass through the shift driven gear 305, and the torque forward detection motor 404 is in a reset state. At this time, the torque support plate 201 is in a retracted state, and the slip detection slider 903 and the displacement sensor 904 are manually slid along the sliding groove 902 on the displacement sensor sliding groove plate 901, and the contact head of the displacement sensor 904 is in contact with the lower plate surface of the first movable plate 16;

[0046] Next, the wheel hub assembly 20 is assembled to the shaft head body 24, and the rod body 1501 is extended by the servo electric cylinder 15, driving the first movable plate 16 to move forward until the inner ring of the bearing pressing tool 17 initially contacts the inner ring of the outer bearing 25, and the torque forward detection motor 404 is started. When the torque forward detection motor 404 rotates, it drives the threaded rod 405 to rotate, and then drives the torque support plate 201 to move forward along the forward sliding linear rail 402, and the torque rotation motor 502 enters a non-locking state. The torque support plate 201 moves forward and drives the wheel bolt connecting sleeve 204 to move forward. During the movement process, the wheel bolt connecting sleeve 204 is manually rotated to be inserted into the wheel bolt 21, and the torque rotation motor 502 is started. The wheel bolt connecting sleeve 204 is driven to rotate through the torque driving gear 503 and the torque driven gear 501, and the wheel bolt connecting sleeve 204 is driven to rotate. The wheel hub assembly 20 is driven to rotate on the shaft head body 24, and the rotational torque of the wheel hub assembly 20 is continuously detected during the rotation process. The rotational torque forward detection motor 404 enters a locked state, and the rod body 1501 extends continuously at a low speed, gradually pressing the inner ring of the bearing until the zero-clearance rotational torque value of the wheel hub assembly 20 is reached. The rod body 1501 enters a one-gear-one-pause mode, and only advances the minimum movement displacement of the servo electric cylinder 15 each time, and pauses until the rotational torque data of the position is detected, and then advances the minimum movement displacement once, and repeats the cycle until the rotational torque reaches the median value of the qualified range. The rod body 1501 stops extending and enters a locked state. Because the lower plate surface of the first movable plate 16 continues to push the slip detection slider 903 and the displacement sensor 904 forward during the press-fitting process, until it stops moving, the position is locked, and the displacement sensor 904 sets this point as the trigger zero point;

[0047] Then, the torque forward detection motor 404 reverses, driving the torque support plate 201 to move backward, so that the wheel bolt connecting sleeve 204 is separated from the wheel bolt 21, and the rod body 1501 contracts to drive the first movable plate 16 to move backward and return to the initial state of the equipment, starting the shift drive motor 601 to rotate, and driving the shift driven gear 305 to rotate through the shift active gear 602, so that the short key 309 on the rod body 1501 and the keyway 307 of the shift driven gear 305 are misaligned and stored in the annular groove 308. At this time, when the rod body 1501 is extended, the short key 309 is abutted against the end of the annular groove 308, which can drive the first movable plate 16 and the second movable plate 306 to move forward. Through calculation and design, it can be ensured that in the shift mode, the outer end surfaces of the bearing inner ring pressing tool 17 and the shaft head nut tightening sleeve 10 after being placed in the shaft head nut 22 and pressed by force are in the same horizontal plane;

[0048] Finally, the rod body 1501 is extended through the servo electric cylinder 15. At this time, the short key 309 is abutted against the end of the annular groove 308, which can drive the second movable plate 306 to move forward, and at the same time drive the mounting plate 18 and the tightening motor 19 to move forward along the tightening shaft sliding rail 701. At this time, the shaft head nut tightening sleeve 10 and the bearing inner ring pressing tooling 17 move forward at the same time. When the shaft head nut tightening sleeve is about to approach the shaft head nut 22, the tightening motor 19 starts to rotate, driving the shaft head nut tightening sleeve 10 to rotate, so that the shaft head nut 22 is gradually tightened until the first movable plate 16 contacts the displacement sensor 904 again, and the tightening motor 19 and the rod body 1501 stop moving at the same time. At this time, it is considered that the clamping force and limit displacement generated by the shaft head nut 22 are the ideal clearance state between the wheel hub assembly 20 and the inner bearing 23 and the outer bearing 25.
