Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automobile engine crankshaft forging, and in particular to an automobile crankshaft detection device and method. Background Art

[0002] Currently, passenger car crankshafts are generally classified into three-cylinder, four-cylinder, six-cylinder, eight-cylinder, and twelve-cylinder crankshafts according to engine type. Engines with different cylinder numbers have different requirements for crankshaft structure and performance. For example, the six-cylinder crankshaft has a special structure and a 120° connecting rod neck arrangement, which places higher requirements on the molding process and testing methods. For the names of the various parts of the V-type six-cylinder crankshaft and the connecting rod neck arrangement, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the crankshaft includes a J1 main journal 1 ′, a J4 main journal 2 ′, a P1 connecting rod journal 3 ′, a P2 connecting rod journal 4 ′, a P3 connecting rod journal 5 ′, a W5 balancing mass 6 ′ and a W6 balancing mass 7 ′.

[0003] The V-type six-cylinder crankshaft is made using a horizontal parting + torsion forming process; in this process, the connecting rod neck angle is guaranteed by the torsion process, and the torsion forming process requires the angle of each connecting rod neck to be detected.

[0004] There is a difference between process inspection and full-size inspection. Full-size inspection is generally performed on the first piece at the beginning of a shift or the last piece at the end of a shift. It is usually carried out using three-dimensional coordinate measurement and only requires one inspection per shift or one inspection per mold number. Process inspection verifies the key dimensions and shapes of forgings during the production process. It does not detect all dimensional and shape variations of the product and requires several inspections per shift. However, existing inspection methods have the following limitations:

[0005] First, it can only detect axial dimensions. The existing integral sample fixture mainly detects axial dimensions and cannot meet the detection requirements of forging dimensions such as angles.

[0006] The second is the low efficiency of full-size inspection. Although the three-coordinate full-size inspection and forging scanning inspection have high accuracy, the inspection efficiency is low, and only 1-2 pieces can be inspected per shift, which cannot meet the needs of large-scale inspection or 100-item inspection. It cannot detect angle changes in real time, nor can it discover and solve problems in production in a timely manner.

[0007] CN107228614B discloses a six-cylinder crankshaft phase angle detection device and method, comprising a measuring bracket, a connecting rod journal positioning block, a dial indicator, and a connecting shaft. The device comprises two measuring brackets, one at each end of the connecting shaft, and five dial indicators mounted on the connecting shaft between the two measuring brackets. A connecting rod positioning block is disposed between the measuring bracket at one end of the connecting shaft and an adjacent dial indicator. The two measuring brackets are mounted on the outer circumferences of the first and seventh main journals of the six-cylinder crankshaft, respectively. The connecting rod journal positioning block is in close contact with the outer circumference of the first connecting journal of the six-cylinder crankshaft. The five dial indicators are mounted on the outer circumferential side surfaces of the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth connecting journals of the six-cylinder crankshaft, perpendicular to the centerline connecting the corresponding connecting journals and the main journals. However, this prior art has a complex structure and is not fast enough for detection.

[0008] CN220153439U belongs to the technical field of passenger car forging gauges, specifically relating to a passenger car crankshaft forging gauge; wherein an angle detection block support seat, eight balancing block detection blocks, five spindle diameter positioning V-blocks, and four connecting rod diameter support blocks are fixed in sequence from front to back on the left side of a base plate; a balancing block detection block and a spindle diameter positioning V-block are fixed in sequence from front to back on the substantially right side; a four-five balancing block detection block is fixed above the one balancing block detection block and the four connecting rod diameter support blocks; a two connecting rod diameter support block is fixed at the front end of the four-five balancing block detection block; the front end of the eight balancing block sector angle detection block is movably connected to the angle detection block support seat, and the rear end of the eight balancing block sector angle detection block is snapped onto the eight balancing block detection blocks and the five spindle diameter positioning V-blocks. However, this prior art uses a through-type measurement method, resulting in low measurement accuracy and poor versatility. Summary of the Invention

[0069] It should be noted in particular that any symbols and / or numbers in the specification that are not marked in the accompanying drawings are not drawing marks.

[0070] Example 1, please refer to Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides an automobile crankshaft detection device, including a base plate 1, which has a rectangular structure. Two main journal positioning blocks 2 arranged opposite to each other are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1. The main journal positioning blocks 2 include a first main journal positioning block 21 and a second main journal positioning block 22. A connecting rod neck limit block 3 is provided in front of the first main journal positioning block 21, and the lower end of the connecting rod neck limit block 3 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1; the automobile crankshaft detection device also includes a height measuring device (not shown in the drawings) for measuring the height of any point on the crankshaft.

[0071] Specifically, see Figure 4As shown, the main journal positioning block 2 includes a base 201, which is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1, and the upper end of the base 201 is fixedly connected to a support seat 202. The upper end of the support seat 202 is provided with a V-shaped groove 203, which is used to support the main journal of the crankshaft and play a positioning role to ensure that the axis center of the crankshaft is accurately positioned; it can also play a limiting role to prevent the crankshaft from moving left and right after placement; wherein the first main journal positioning block 21 is used to support the J1 main journal 1', and the second main journal positioning block 22 is used to support the J4 main journal 2', and the center distance between the V-shaped grooves 203 of the two main journal positioning blocks 2 is the same as the center distance between the crankshaft J1 main journal 1' and the J4 main journal 2'.

[0072] The connecting rod neck limit block 3 includes a connecting seat 31, which is arranged on the right side of the base 201 of the first main journal positioning block 21 and is fixedly connected to the base plate 1 for avoiding the crankshaft and preventing interference with the crankshaft. The front end of the connecting seat 31 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 32, and the left side of the limiting plate 32, that is, the side facing the crankshaft, is provided with a limiting groove 321, which can stop the P1 connecting rod neck 3' when the crankshaft is rotated. The middle and lower part of the limiting groove 321 is arc-shaped, which is used to fit the outer wall of the P1 connecting rod neck 3' when in contact with the P1 connecting rod neck 3'.

[0073] See also Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment further provides a method for detecting an automobile crankshaft, based on the above-mentioned automobile crankshaft detection device, comprising:

[0074] Place the crankshaft on the testing device;

[0075] Rotate the crankshaft and secure it;

[0076] Measure the height of the crankshaft part to be tested;

[0077] Determine whether the test results are qualified.

[0078] Specifically, see Figures 7 to 10 As shown, placing the crankshaft on the detection device includes,

[0079] Place the crankshaft's J1 main journal 1' in the V-shaped groove 203 of the first main journal positioning block 21, and place the crankshaft's J4 main journal 2' in the V-shaped groove 203 of the second main journal positioning block 22. Fine-tune the crankshaft so that the center of the V-shaped groove 203 is as close as possible to the middle position of the two main journals.

[0080] Rotate the crankshaft and fix it including,

[0081] Rotate the crankshaft clockwise until the P1 connecting rod neck 3' stops at the connecting rod neck limit block 3. Under normal circumstances, the crankshaft will remain stationary under the action of its own weight and the friction of the V-shaped groove 203. However, there are still some models of crankshafts that cannot remain stationary due to the offset of the center of gravity. They will rotate under the action of their own weight. At this time, external force needs to be applied to fix the crankshaft. You can use a strap or directly support it by hand to keep it stationary.

[0082] The height values ​​of the crankshaft to be measured include:

[0083] The height of the top of the P3 connecting rod neck 5 ′ is measured using a height measuring device. In this embodiment, the height measuring device is a height vernier caliper. The measured height H3 is the vertical distance from the top of the P3 connecting rod neck 5 ′ to the bottom surface of the base plate 1 .

[0084] Judging whether the test results are qualified includes:

[0085] Compare the height H3 measured in the previous step with the preset first standard height H0 and calculate the first height difference N, N=|H3-H0|, and compare N with the preset first height difference limit N'. If N≤N', the test result is qualified; if N>N', the test result is unqualified; in this embodiment, H0=223.2mm, N'=0.8mm.

[0086] The measurement principle of the present invention is that when the crankshaft rotates, the height H of the center of the main journal remains unchanged. When the position of the P1 connecting rod neck 3' is fixed, the position of the P3 connecting rod neck 5' is also a fixed value. If the crankshaft is qualified, the phase angle between the P1 connecting rod neck 3' and the P3 connecting rod neck 5' is 120°. When the P1 connecting rod neck 3' is stopped by the connecting rod neck limit block 3, the line connecting the center of the P1 connecting rod neck 3' and the center of the main journal is exactly in the vertical direction. The horizontal contact point Q between the P1 connecting rod neck 3' and the connecting rod neck limit block 3 is used as the reference point for the design and manufacture of the connecting rod neck limit block 3; the height H3 of the top end of the P3 connecting rod neck 5' is the first standard height H0; if the position of the P3 connecting rod neck 5' changes, the value of H3 will also change accordingly. Therefore, by comparing H3 with H0, it can be determined whether the torsional angle of the crankshaft during the production process is qualified.

[0087] See also Figure 11 As shown, the specific torsion angle B can also be obtained according to the measurement results. The conversion relationship between the torsion angle and the height is as follows:

[0088]

[0089] According to the above formula, the calculation method of B is as follows:

[0090]

[0091] Where: N is the first height difference, B is the torsion angle, and R is the distance from the center of the main journal to the center of the P3 connecting rod journal 5'.

[0092] In some embodiments, measuring the height of the crankshaft portion to be measured further includes:

[0093] A height measuring device is used to measure the heights H5 and H6 of the W5 balancing block 6 ′ and the W6 balancing block 7 ′. H5 and H6 are vertical distances from the top of the W5 balancing block 6 ′ and the top of the W6 balancing block 7 ′ to the bottom surface of the substrate 1 .

[0094] Judging whether the test results are qualified also includes:

[0095] Compare H5 with the preset second standard height H50 and calculate the second height difference N2, N2 = |H5-H50|. Compare N2 with the preset second height difference limit N2'. If N2 ≤ N2', the test result is qualified; if N2 > N2', the test result is unqualified. In this embodiment, H50 = 204 mm and N2' = 2 mm.

[0096] Compare H6 with the preset third standard height H60 and calculate the third height difference N3, N3=|H6-H60|, and compare N3 with the preset third height difference limit N3'. If N3≤N3', the test result is qualified; if N3>N3', the test result is unqualified; in this embodiment, H60=224mm, N3'=2mm.

[0097] The height dimensions of the W5 balancing block 6' and the W6 balancing block 7' are critical dimensions for the cleaning process; the cavity is designed according to the size of the forging. If the size deviation of the non-machined surface of the forging is too large, interference will occur when the product is placed in the cavity, and the cavity cannot be completely closed during vacuum cleaning, which will affect the subsequent cleaning effect.

[0098] Example 2, please refer to Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides an automobile crankshaft detection device, which is improved on the basis of Example 1 to enhance the versatility of the device.

[0099] Specifically, the automobile crankshaft detection device includes a substrate 1, which is a rectangular structure. The upper surface of the substrate 1 is connected to two main shaft neck positioning blocks 2 arranged opposite to each other. The main shaft neck positioning blocks 2 include a first main shaft neck positioning block 21 and a second main shaft neck positioning block 22. The first main shaft neck positioning block 21 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the substrate 1, and the second main shaft neck positioning block 22 is detachably connected to the upper surface of the substrate 1; a connecting rod neck limit block 3 is arranged in front of the first shaft neck positioning block, and the lower end of the connecting rod neck limit block 3 can be slidably connected to the upper surface of the substrate 1; the automobile crankshaft detection device also includes a height measuring device for measuring the height of any point on the crankshaft.

In this embodiment, each group of positioning holes 12 includes two threaded holes 121 and one pin hole 122, and the three holes are not collinear, so that the second main shaft neck positioning block 22 can be positioned accurately and firmly, thereby ensuring measurement accuracy; different numbers of threaded holes 121 and pin holes 122 in each group can also be set as needed.

[0101] Specifically, a slide groove 11 is provided on the upper surface of the base plate 1 on the right side of the main shaft neck positioning block 2 along the front-to-back direction, and a slider is provided at the bottom end of the connecting seat 31 of the connecting rod neck limit block 3.

By rotating the fastening nut 34, the connecting seat 31 can be loosened or fixed relative to the slide groove 11.

[0102] The automobile crankshaft detection device provided in this embodiment can be used for detecting crankshafts of different sizes and types by connecting the second main journal positioning block 22 with different groups of positioning holes 12 and sliding the connecting rod neck limit block 3, thereby improving the versatility of the device.
