Description
Technical Field

[0002] Most of the key structural parts in heavy machinery equipment, such as the trolley frame of industrial cranes and the crawler frame of mining excavators, are single-piece and small-batch produced with large differences in structural characteristics. The size of these workpieces is usually greater than 10m and the weight is usually more than 10t. When they are processed and clamped on a machine tool, the usual hydraulic and pneumatic clamps are special tooling fixtures with a small adjustable range, which makes it difficult to apply them to the processing of workpieces of different products and different sizes.
[0003] In the prior art, large workpieces are usually fixed by Figure 1 In the method shown, the long screw 100, the nut 200, the pressure plate 300, the jack 400 and the square box 500 are used for clamping. When clamping, the workpiece is placed on the square box 500, and the position of the workpiece is adjusted by lifting with a crane. After the position is adjusted, the jack 400 is adjusted to a suitable height, and the workpiece is clamped by the principle of leverage. Since the weight of the processed structural parts is large and the structural parts have dimensional deviations due to manufacturing reasons, this traditional tooling fixture needs to use a crane and a jack 400 to adjust and align the position of the workpiece during clamping, and then fix it for clamping.

[0042] On the other hand, the modular clamping method for large workpiece processing of the present invention is implemented using the above modular clamping device, specifically comprising the following steps:
[0043] Step 1: According to the size characteristics of the workpiece 4 to be processed, the support position of the support fixture 3 on the workpiece 4 is calculated, and the height of the support fixture 3 is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of the second support 22 at the bottom of the base 31, and the support fixture 3 is assembled. A plurality of assembled support fixtures 3 are fixed to the designated position on the workbench by fasteners, and the workpiece 4 is placed on the top of the support fixture 3 by a lifting device, so that the lifting head 33 is against the bottom end of the workpiece 4, and the height deviation of the horizontal waistline of the workpiece 4 is detected by a measuring tool, and the electric wrench is used to rotate the adjusting worm 34 synchronously to raise and lower the lifting rod 32, thereby adjusting the height deviation of the four corners of the workpiece 4 until the processing requirements are met;
[0044] Step 2: According to the size characteristics of the workpiece 4 to be processed, the required side-pushing height and placement position of the side-pushing fixture 2 are calculated respectively, and the height of the side-pushing fixture 2 is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of the second supports 22, and the side-pushing fixture 2 is assembled, and then a plurality of assembled side-pushing fixtures 2 are fixed to the specified position on the workbench by fasteners, and the side-pushing head 23 is pressed against the end face of the workpiece 4, and then the horizontal deviation of the workpiece 4, that is, the deviation between the center line of the workpiece 4 and the machine tool, is detected by a measuring tool, and the adjusting screw 24 is synchronously rotated with an electric wrench to extend and retract the side-pushing head 23, thereby adjusting the horizontal deviation of the workpiece 4, until the deviation between the center line of the workpiece 4 and the relative position of the machine tool meets the processing requirements;
[0045] Step 3: According to the size characteristics of the workpiece 4 to be processed, the height of the clamping clamp 1 is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the number of the second supports 22 at the bottom of the support seat 11, and the clamping clamp 1 is assembled. Thereafter, multiple assembled clamps 1 are fixed to the specified position on the workbench by fasteners, and the bottom of the clamping seat 16 is pressed against the top of the workpiece 4. Then, through the clamping force calculation, an electric wrench is used to rotate the adjusting bolt 15 to extend and retract the push rod 17, thereby adjusting the clamping force in the vertical direction of the workpiece 4 until the clamping force meets the processing requirements, thereby completing the clamping of the workpiece 4.
[0046] Furthermore, in the modular clamping method for large workpiece processing of the present invention, when the workpiece 4 to be processed again is the same as the workpiece 4 processed last time, the clamping of the workpiece 4 can be completed by repeating the above steps 2 and 3 in sequence.
[0047] As a specific embodiment, the calculation basis of the clamping force when the clamping fixture 1 is used is:
[0048] When the workpiece 4 to be processed is made of low-alloy high-strength steel and needs to be milled using a carbide tool, the maximum cutting parameters are as follows: cutting depth ap = 6 mm; feed rate f = 0.2 mm / tooth; milling cutter diameter D = 250 mm; number of milling cutter teeth Z = 16; spindle speed n = 300 r / min;
[0049] First, calculate the cutting force: calculate the cutting speed v = πDn / 1000 = π×250×300 / 1000 = 75π (mm / min); calculate the cutting force Fc according to the cutting force formula. For low-alloy high-strength steel, the cutting force coefficient can be referenced as Kc = 1800~2800N / mm 2 ; The cutting force calculation formula is: Fc=Kc×ap×f×z=2800×6×0.2×16=53760N, and then the clamping force is calculated: Determine the safety factor: Considering factors such as vibration and impact during the processing, the safety factor is S=2; The calculated clamping force Fj must be greater than or equal to the cutting force multiplied by the safety factor, that is, Fj≥Fc×S; so Fj≥53760×2=107520N, and finally the pressure under the tooling is calculated: The maximum clamping force required for the workpiece 4 is Fj=107520 / 9.8=10971.43 (kg)=10.97 (t); If a single clamping fixture 1 with a clamping force of 3t is used, the four clamping fixtures 1 have a total clamping force of 12t, and 12t>10.97t is obtained. It is judged that the use of four clamping fixtures 1 with a clamping force of 3t meets the clamping requirements.

[0051] (1) The present invention adopts a modular clamping fixture 1, a side push fixture 2, and a support fixture 3, which can be freely combined according to the shape and size of the workpiece 4 to be clamped, and the position of the workpiece 4 can be adjusted during the clamping process. The processing and clamping of workpieces 4 of different sizes can be achieved through the combination of various modules in different ways, thereby improving the clamping efficiency, having good clamping accuracy and stability, good adaptability, simple structure, and convenient disassembly and assembly;
[0052] (2) In the present invention, the heights of the clamping fixture 1, the side push fixture 2, and the support fixture 3 can be adjusted according to the size characteristics of the workpiece 4 to be processed by increasing or decreasing the number of the first support 21 or the second support 22 at the bottom of the support seat 11, the bottom of the side push assembly, and the bottom of the base 31.

Then, calculate the clamping force and use a wrench to rotate the adjusting bolt to extend and retract the push rod, thereby adjusting the clamping force in the vertical direction of the workpiece until the clamping force meets the processing requirements, thereby completing the clamping of the workpiece.
10. The modular clamping method for large workpiece processing according to claim 9, characterized in that: When the workpiece to be processed again is the same as the workpiece processed last time, the clamping of the workpiece can be completed by repeating the above steps 2 and 3 in sequence.
