Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of mechanical part inspection, and particularly to a detection bolt for auxiliary positioning of the center of a threaded hole. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing quality requirements of components in the mechanical processing process, single-headed bolts are widely used in the detection process of the positional relationship of threaded holes of components. Currently, the detection of component hole positions mostly relies on a coordinate measuring machine. However, for accurate measurement results, threading is not performed on the components immediately after the hole positions are processed. Instead, after the coordinate measuring machine has measured all the hole position relationships of the components to be measured and confirmed that the dimensions are qualified, manual threading is carried out. However, in some special cases, such as in-process sampling inspection, product troubleshooting, reverse design, etc., the threading process of the component hole positions has been completed. At this time, if directly measured with a coordinate measuring machine, the probe will land on the threaded surface to take points, resulting in deformed measured hole positions and affecting the accurate determination of the threaded hole positions.

[0003] The applicant's research found that: Currently, the common method for measuring components with threaded holes is to use a single-headed bolt for auxiliary detection. That is, a single-headed bolt of a suitable size is paired according to the size of the threaded hole, and the threaded end of the single-headed bolt is screwed into the threaded hole, and then the coordinate measuring machine is used to measure the smooth end of the single-headed bolt to indirectly measure the hole position relationship of the component.

[0004] However, traditional single-headed bolts can only achieve one-to-one paired detection. Since the specifications of the threaded holes of components are different, it is required to pair corresponding single-headed bolts of different specifications for the threaded holes of different components on-site. This will not only reduce the production efficiency of components, but also greatly increase the management cost and manufacturing cost of single-headed bolts. Summary of the Invention

[0035] An embodiment of the present application provides a detection bolt for auxiliary positioning of the center of a threaded hole.

[0036] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, a detection bolt for auxiliary positioning of the center of a threaded hole includes:

[0037] A cylindrical outer shell 1.

[0038] The telescopic component with n - level sleeves, from outside to inside, is the first to the nth level. The structure of each level of the telescopic component includes a screw rod 2 and a sliding block 3, and the sliding block 3 is fixed at one end of the screw rod 2. The first - level structure is arranged inside the cylindrical outer shell 1, and the ith - level structure is accommodated in the through - hole 4 axially opened on the (i - 1)th - level structure, where i = 2 to n, and the axial direction is the length direction of the cylindrical outer shell 1. The sliding block 3 of the first - level structure slides along the length direction of the cylindrical outer shell 1 inside the cylindrical outer shell 1, and the sliding block 3 of the ith - level structure slides along the length direction of the cylindrical outer shell 1 in the through - hole 4 of the (i - 1)th - level structure.

[0039] Multiple sets of locking mechanisms are respectively arranged between the end of the cylindrical outer shell 1 and the sliding block 3 of the first - level structure, and between the inner wall of the through - hole 4 of the (i - 1)th - level structure and the sliding block 3 of the ith - level structure. The locking mechanism is configured to: when the screw rod 2 of any level axially extends a preset length out of the accommodation cavity, lock the relative position of the sliding block 3 on the extended screw rod 2 of this level and the accommodation cavity. Specifically, the locking mechanism between the end of the cylindrical outer shell 1 and the sliding block 3 of the first - level structure is used to: lock the position of the sliding block 3 of the first - level structure relative to the cylindrical outer shell 1 after the screw rod 2 of the first - level structure extends a preset length out of the cylindrical outer shell 1; the locking mechanism between the inner wall of the through - hole 4 of the (i - 1)th - level structure and the sliding block 3 of the ith - level structure is used to: lock the position of the sliding block 3 of the ith - level structure and the screw rod 2 of the (i - 1)th - level structure after the screw rod 2 of the ith - level structure extends a preset length out of the through - hole 4 of the (i - 1)th - level structure.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present application, n is equal to 3. In other embodiments, n can be valued according to actual needs.

[0041] The inner circle of the cylindrical outer shell 1, the through - hole 4, and the outer peripheral side wall of the sliding block 3 are circular. The cylindrical outer shell 1, the through - hole 4, and the sliding block 3 have concentric circular cross - sections, and the roundness tolerance does not exceed IT7 level. The outer diameter of the sliding block 3 on the same - level structure is larger than the outer diameter of the screw rod 2.

[0042] As Figure 4 shown, on the inner wall of the cylindrical outer shell 1 and the inner wall of the through - hole 4, there are inward - protruding guide rails 5 extending along the length direction of the cylindrical outer shell 1, and on the sliding block 3, there are guide grooves 6 cooperating with the guide rails 5. The arrangement of the guide rails 5 and the guide grooves 6 stabilizes the telescopic sliding stability of each - level structure. Both the guide rails 5 and the guide grooves 6 are provided with two.

[0043] As Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, on the inner wall of the cylindrical outer shell 1 and the inner wall of the through - hole 4, there are limit rings 7 surrounding the outer periphery of the screw rod 2. After the screw rod 2 extends a preset length out of the cylindrical shell or the through - hole 4, the end faces of the sliding block 3 and the limit rings 7 are in contact. The inner diameter of the limit ring 7 is smaller than the outer diameter of the sliding block 3 and larger than the outer diameter of the screw rod 2.

[0044] As Figures 4 to 6 shown, a receiving channel 8 is provided at the bottom of the guide groove 6. The length direction of the receiving channel 8 is arranged along the radial direction. The receiving channel 8 is successively provided with a spring 9, a steel ball 10, and a retaining ring 11 from the inside to the outside. The retaining ring 11 is fixed on one side of the receiving channel 8 away from the inner wall of the through hole 4. The spring 9 is in a compressed state. The inner diameter of the retaining ring 11 is smaller than the outer diameter of the steel ball 10, and the end of the steel ball 10 away from the spring 9 protrudes from the retaining ring 11. A clamping groove 12 that cooperates with the steel ball 10 is provided at one end of the inner walls of the cylindrical outer shell 1 and the through hole 4 close to the limiting ring 7. In the embodiment of the present application, the spring 9, the steel ball 10, the retaining ring 11, and the clamping groove 12 in the receiving channel 8 are combined to form a locking mechanism. Each guide groove 6 is provided with a receiving channel 8.

[0045] Each end face of the sliding block 3 facing away from the screw 2 is evenly punched with points 13, so that the outer peripheral side wall of the sliding block 3 undergoes radial plastic deformation. The sliding block 3 with plastic deformation abuts against the inner wall of the through hole 4 or the cylindrical outer shell 1, which is used to prevent the single-headed bolts of each level of structure from separating from each other during use. When in use, when a person applies pressure to the sliding block 3, the sliding block 3 can be separated from the through hole 4 or the sliding block 3 can be separated from the cylindrical shell. In the embodiment of the present application, the depth of the punching point 13 is 0.3-0.8 mm and the punching angle is 45-60°.

[0046] When in use, when a certain level of screw 2 is needed, pressure is applied to the sliding block 3 of this level of structure and each level of structure inside this level of structure at the same time, so that the screw 2 of this level of structure and the screw 2 of each level of structure inside this level of structure protrude at the same time. At this time, only the screw 2 of this level of structure is exposed, and the screw 2 inside this level of structure is in a hidden state. Under the limiting action of the guide rail 5 and the guide groove 6, by rotating the cylindrical outer shell 1, the screw 2 of this level of structure can be driven to rotate so as to be screwed into the threaded hole of the component to be measured.

[0047] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
