Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of diesel engine base processing, and in particular to a device and method for processing bolt holes of a main bearing of a diesel engine base. Background Art

[0002] The statements herein merely provide background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] The engine base of a large series of ultra-long stroke diesel engines refers to a base in which the distance between the bottom of the main shaft bolt hole and the top surface of the base is not less than 1120mm. The main bearing bolt hole of the base is relatively long from the top surface of the base. At the same time, the distance from the center of the hole to the side is limited. The large-diameter extension sleeve cannot be used and the tool is forced to be lengthened. Taking one type of engine base as an example, the distance between the bottom of the main bearing bolt hole and the top surface is 1285mm. The lengthening of the drilling tool has a great impact on the processing quality and efficiency, and is accompanied by increased quality risks. Specifically, the use of extended deep drilling tools for processing will weaken the rigidity of the tool and limit the number of revolutions, which usually results in poor center positioning, poor roughness of the processed hole wall, and inconsistent hole verticality.

[0017] Example 1 This embodiment provides a diesel engine base main bearing bolt hole processing device, such as Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, it includes a gantry drilling and milling mechanism. In this embodiment, the gantry drilling and milling mechanism can adopt the existing gantry drilling and milling machine, including a power device 3. The bottom of the power device is connected to a main shaft. The power device 3 can drive the main shaft 6 to rotate around its own axis. The power device 3 is connected to the vertical lifting component. The vertical lifting component can drive the power device to move vertically. The vertical lifting component is connected to the first horizontal motion component. The first horizontal motion component can drive the vertical lifting component to move along the first horizontal direction. A workbench is provided under the main shaft 6. The workbench is used to fix the diesel engine base for fixing the bolt holes to be processed. The workbench is connected to the second horizontal motion component. The second horizontal motion component can drive the workbench to move along the second horizontal direction. The second horizontal direction is perpendicular to the first horizontal direction.

[0018] The above structure can adopt the structure of the existing gantry drilling and milling machine, and its further technical details are not described in detail here. This embodiment is improved on the basis of the current gantry drilling and milling machine.

[0019] The bottom end of the housing of the power device 3 is fixedly connected to one end of the accessory head 1 , and the accessory head 1 is arranged along the radial direction of the main shaft 6 .

[0020] In this embodiment, the accessory head 1 includes a shell, the inner end of the shell is connected to the rotating part of the rotating component 5 arranged at the bottom end of the shell of the power equipment 3, and the rotating component 5 is coaxially arranged with the main shaft. The rotating component 5 can drive the accessory head to rotate along the axis of the main shaft.

[0021] In this embodiment, the rotating component 5 includes an annular fixed portion and an annular rotating portion rotatably connected to the fixed portion. Specifically, the fixed portion is sleeved on the outer periphery of the rotating portion, the inner side surface of the fixed portion is provided with an annular groove, and the rotating portion is provided with an annular protrusion embedded in the annular groove. The fixed portion and the rotating portion are rotatably connected through the annular protrusion and the annular groove. The rotating portion can rotate around its own axis. A locking member is provided between the fixed portion and the rotating portion to lock and fix the fixed portion and the rotating portion. In this embodiment, the locking member is a locking bolt, and the fixed portion is threadedly connected with a plurality of locking bolts arranged radially along the fixed portion. By rotating the locking bolt, the rod of the locking bolt can be pressed against the annular boss, thereby realizing locking and fixing between the fixed portion and the rotating portion.

[0022] In this way, after loosening the locking bolt, the swivel portion can be manually rotated to adjust the angle of the accessory head.

[0023] In another embodiment, the rotary component 5 adopts an existing electric hollow rotary platform. The electric hollow rotary platform adopts existing equipment and will not be described in detail here.

[0024] A flange is provided on the top surface of one end of the shell of the accessory head 1, which is fixedly connected to the rotating part of the rotating component 5 through the flange and multiple bolts. The main shaft extends into the interior of the shell of the accessory head 1 and is connected to the input end of the transmission mechanism 7 in the shell, so as to transmit power to the transmission mechanism 7.

[0025] The transmission mechanism 7 can transmit the rotation of the main shaft 6 in the radial direction of the main shaft 6 .

[0026] In this embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the transmission mechanism 7 includes gears arranged in sequence and meshing along the radial direction of the main shaft, and the axes of the gears are parallel to the axis of the main shaft. The gear at one end serves as the input end gear, which is connected to the main shaft and is used to receive the power of the main shaft. The gear at the other end serves as the output end gear, which is used to connect the output shaft of the accessory head. The remaining gears serve as intermediate gears, which are rotatably connected to the axle fixed to the accessory head housing. The main shaft extends into one end of the accessory head, and the output shaft 8 of the accessory head extends from the other end of the accessory head housing to the bottom of the accessory head housing. A clamp is provided at the bottom end of the output shaft of the accessory head, and the clamp is detachably connected to the drill tool 2, which is used to process bolt holes.

[0027] The fixture can be an existing drilling fixture, and can be used for drilling tools such as U drills, fine boring tools, twist drills, and chamfer drills. Its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0028] The size of the housing of the accessory head 1 meets the set requirements, which enables the accessory head to enter the groove inside the diesel engine base.

[0029] In this embodiment, the drilling tool 2 is a shallow hole drilling tool, which can be a U drill, a fine boring tool, a twist drill, a chamfer drill, or a chip tap. Those skilled in the art can select the corresponding drilling tool according to processing requirements.

[0030] With the processing device of this embodiment, since the accessory head 1 and the main shaft 6 can enter the groove of the machine base 4, a shorter shallow hole drill can be used to install the bolt hole, and there is no need to use an extended deep drilling tool. The rigidity of the tool is significantly enhanced to solve the problems of weakened rigidity of the drilling tool due to the extended tool, poor center positioning caused by limited number of revolutions, poor roughness of the processed hole wall, etc., effectively improving the quality of the main bearing bolt hole and reducing the processing quality risk. At the same time, the number of revolutions will not be limited, and the efficiency has been greatly improved, which directly improves the processing efficiency and reduces the processing time.

[0031] Example 2 This embodiment provides a working method of the diesel engine base main bearing bolt hole machining device described in Example 1, along the direction from top to bottom, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bolt hole includes a countersunk hole, a bottom hole and a bottom cone arranged in sequence, wherein the bottom hole is provided with an internal thread structure, and the top of the bottom hole is provided with a threaded hole chamfer.

[0032] The processing method comprises the following steps: Step 1: Install the drilling tool 2 at the output end of the transmission mechanism; Step 2: The gantry drilling and milling mechanism drives the power device 3 and the accessory head 1 to sink to the set position inside the groove of the machine base 4 to be processed; Step 3: The rotating component 5 drives the accessory head 1 to rotate so that the drilling tool 2 corresponds to the position of the hole to be drilled; Step 4: The power device 3 of the gantry drilling and milling mechanism drives the main shaft 6 to rotate, and the main shaft 6 drives the drill 2 to rotate through the transmission mechanism 7. At the same time, the gantry drilling and milling mechanism drives the power device to feed, and the drill 2 drills on the machine base 4 to form the main bolt hole.

[0033] Among them, the countersink, bottom hole and bottom cone are processed in sequence. After the bottom cone is processed, the threaded hole chamfer is processed on the top of the bottom hole, and finally the internal thread structure is processed on the bottom hole. Correspondingly, when processing the countersink, the countersink processing drill is installed at the output end of the transmission mechanism. When processing the bottom hole, the bottom hole processing drill is installed at the output end of the transmission mechanism. When processing the threaded hole chamfer, the chamfer drill is installed at the output end of the transmission mechanism. When processing the internal thread structure, the chip tap is installed at the output end of the transmission mechanism. Specifically, the following steps are included: Step a: Install a 1 mm U drill on the fixture of the output shaft 8 of the accessory head 1.

[0034] Step b: the gantry drilling and milling mechanism drives the power device 3 and the accessory head 1 to sink to a set position inside the groove of the machine base 4 to be processed; Step c: The rotating component 5 drives the accessory head 1 to rotate so that the U drill corresponds to the position of the hole to be drilled; Step d: The power equipment 3 of the gantry drilling and milling mechanism drives the main shaft 6 to rotate, and the main shaft 6 drives the U drill to rotate through the transmission mechanism 7. At the same time, the gantry drilling and milling mechanism drives the power equipment 3 to feed, and the U drill performs drilling processing on the machine base 4 to form a countersink. In this step, the countersink is rough-processed using the U drill. After the processing is completed, the power equipment is reset.

[0035] Step e: Replace the U drill with a fine boring tool, repeat steps b to d, and use the fine boring tool to finish the countersink.

[0036] Step f: Replace the fine boring tool with a U drill that is 1 mm smaller than the bottom hole diameter, repeat steps b to d, and use the U drill to rough-machine the bottom hole.

[0037] Step g: Replace the U drill with a fine boring tool that matches the size of the bottom hole, repeat steps b to d, and use the fine boring tool to finish the bottom hole.

[0038] Step h: Replace the fine boring tool with a twist drill that has the same angle as the bottom cone, repeat steps b to d, and use the twist drill to process the bottom cone.

[0039] Step i: Replace the twist drill with a chamfer drill, repeat steps b to d, and use the chamfer drill to chamfer the threaded hole at the top of the bottom hole.

[0040] Step j: Use an extension sleeve to install a flexible tapping sleeve and an internal chip tap on the output shaft 8 of the accessory head 1, repeat steps b to d to tap the bottom hole to form an internal thread structure of the bottom hole.

[0041] The extension sleeve and the flexible tapping sleeve can be made of existing parts, and their specific structures will not be described in detail here. Their assembly and connection methods can also adopt existing technologies.

[0042] After completing step j, the bolt hole processing is completed, and the gantry drilling and milling mechanism drives the machine base 4 to move, and cooperates with the rotating component 5 to process the next bolt hole until all the bolt holes are processed.

[0043] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Various modifications and variations are possible for those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
