Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of drive shaft technology, and more specifically, to a flange fork machining system and method. Background Technology

[0002] As a crucial component of the drive shaft, the flange fork is primarily used to connect the drive shaft to external parts and transmit power. A flange fork typically consists of a flange and two fork bodies. During manufacturing, the end face of the flange is a critical assembly reference surface, requiring machining to ensure flatness. However, adapting to different machining conditions of the flange fork and achieving stable and precise clamping of the flange fork during further machining of the flange end face has become a significant technical challenge.

[0003] Currently, general-purpose fixtures or simple positioning blocks are commonly used for clamping flange end faces. These methods have significant drawbacks: First, the overhanging structure of the fork causes the workpiece's center of gravity to shift, making it prone to elastic deformation under clamping force or vibration under cutting force, severely affecting the flatness of the end face and the accuracy of the holes. Second, when the flange fork is in different states (such as when the end face needs to be milled in the blank state, or when subsequent processes require drilling holes on the already machined end face), there is a lack of a unified and reliable datum conversion scheme. Operators need to repeatedly align the fork, resulting in low efficiency and difficulty in ensuring dimensional consistency between different processes. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a dedicated machining system that can adapt to different machining states of the flange fork, effectively overcome the clamping difficulties caused by its structure, and ensure the machining accuracy of the flange end face.

[0037] To solve the problems of being unable to adapt to different processing states of the flange fork, being difficult to clamp, and being difficult to ensure the processing precision, the present application provides a flange fork processing system and method.

[0038] Embodiment one

[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The base assembly 10 and the elastic assembly 40, the base assembly 10 includes a bottom plate 11; the bottom plate 11 is provided with a first mounting groove 13 along a first direction Y, two second mounting grooves 14 and two third mounting grooves 15 are arranged on both sides of the center line of the first mounting groove 13; wherein the second mounting groove 14 and the third mounting groove 15 have the same center line along a second direction X.

[0040] In the embodiment, the bottom plate 11 is further provided with a reference slot 12 along the first direction Y, the reference slot 12 is parallel to the center line of the two first mounting slots 13; the reference slot 12 is parallel to the center line of the two third mounting slots 15.

[0041] It can be understood that the first mounting slot 13, the second mounting slot 14, and the third mounting slot 15 with accurate positional relationship are pre-set on the bottom plate 11, which provides a unified mechanical interface for the workpiece. Since the first mounting slot 13, the second mounting slot 14, the third mounting slot 15, and the reference slot 12 are formed by single milling, the reference slot 12 can be used as a positioning reference of the first mounting slot 13, the second mounting slot 14, and the third mounting slot 15. Based on the reference slot 12, it can be directly observed whether the relative position is accurate. The relatively accurate position can enable the entire tooling system to be quickly and accurately positioned and installed in the machining center, thereby reducing systematic tool setting errors from the source and providing a basic guarantee for high-precision of the entire machining process. In the related art, the end face of the bottom plate is usually used as a positioning reference. However, the bottom plate is usually a blank, and the end face is prone to be knocked, thereby resulting in poor flatness of the end face. Therefore, the slots formed by single milling are prone to positional deviation, which leads to poor machining precision of the flange fork 50.

[0042] Further, please refer to Figure 4 The elastic assembly 40 includes a base 41 and a pressing member 42; the base 41 is arranged in the first mounting slot 13 and used for supporting the pressing member 42; the pressing member 42 is arranged on the base 41 and extends towards the two ends of the second mounting slot 14. In the embodiment, the pressing member 42 is a cuboid, and the two ends of the pressing member 42 are used for fixing the flange fork 50. The shape of the pressing member 42 is subject to actual application.

[0043] In the embodiment, the elastic assembly 40 further includes an elastic unit 43, the elastic unit 43 includes a nut 431, a screw rod 432, and an elastic member 433; the base 41 and the pressing member 42 are provided with through holes along the first direction Y, the elastic member 433 is detachably arranged in the through hole, and the screw rod 432 is arranged in the through hole and abuts against the elastic member 433; the nut 431 is arranged on the pressing member 42 and threadedly connected with the screw rod 432, and the nut is used for adjusting the height of the elastic member 433 affecting the pressing member 42.

[0044] It can be understood that the height of the pressing member 42 in the first direction Y is adjusted based on the elastic unit 43, that is, the elastic height of the elastic member 433 in the through hole is adjusted by adjusting the cooperation between the nut 431 and the screw rod 432, so that the pressing member 42 can fix the flange fork 50 along the first direction Y. Moreover, the elastic member 433 can compensate the microscopic unevenness of the arc surface of the flange fork 50, so that the pressing force is more uniformly distributed, the workpiece can be clamped, and the deformation of the thin-walled flange plate 51 caused by excessive or uneven pressing force can be effectively prevented.

[0045] In the present example, please refer to Figure 3 The upper surface of the flange fork 50 is arc-shaped, and the pressing piece 42 is provided with an abutting portion 44 on the side facing the second mounting groove 14, which abuts against the flange fork 50, further ensuring the stability and reliability of the fixation of the pressing piece 42 and the flange fork 50.

[0046] Further, the flange fork processing system of the present application is used to process the end face of the flange fork 50, which includes an integrally formed flange plate 51 and two fork bodies 52 symmetrically arranged on the flange plate 51, i.e. the flange fork processing system of the present application is used to process the end face of the flange plate 51. The two fork bodies 52 include fork body holes that can cooperate with the fixing unit 32 described below, and the center axes of the two fork body holes coincide.

[0047] Further, based on different processes of the machining center, the flange fork 50 has different states, and the flange fork 50 in different states processes the end face of the flange plate 51 under different working conditions, wherein the flange fork processing system includes a first working condition and a second working condition.

[0048] Specifically, in the first working condition, the second mounting groove 14 is provided with a first fixing assembly 20; the pressing piece 42 presses the flange plate 51 onto the first fixing assembly 20 along the first direction Y, and the first fixing assembly 20 is detachably arranged in the second mounting groove 14; and the flange plate 51 is connected with the first fixing assembly 20.

[0049] Specifically, the first fixing assembly 20 includes a positioning plate 21 and a positioning pin 22; the positioning plate 21 is arranged in the second mounting groove 14; the positioning pin 22 is arranged on the positioning plate 21; the flange plate 51 is provided with a plurality of connecting holes 53 along the first direction Y; and in the first working condition, the positioning pin 22 penetrates the connecting hole 53 along the first direction Y and is connected with the flange plate 51.

[0050] Exemplarily, the number of positioning pins 22 can be two, and the number of connecting holes 53 is also two, which are matched in number, the positioning pin 22 penetrates the connecting hole 53 and connects the first fixing assembly 20 and the flange plate 51, and fixes the flange fork 50 on the bottom plate 11, eliminating the freedom of movement and rotation of the flange fork 50 in the horizontal plane, and the number of positioning pins 22 and the number of connecting holes 53 are not limited in the present embodiment, and are subject to actual application.

[0051] Specifically, the positioning plate 21 can be provided with a third tail groove 23, which is annular, for collecting tailings in the processing process, to avoid accumulation or friction damage to the workpiece, and the specific application is subject to actual application.

[0052] Further, in the first working condition, the second fixing assembly 30 is arranged in the third mounting groove 15, the second fixing assembly 30 comprises a supporting unit 31 and a fixing unit 32, the supporting unit 31 is arranged in the third mounting groove 15; the fixing unit 32 penetrates the supporting unit 31 and is connected with the fork body 52; the central axis of the fork body 52 coincides with the center lines of the second mounting groove 14 and the third mounting groove 15 along the second direction X. The overall rigidity and stability of the flange fork 50 during the machining process are enhanced. By constraining the workpiece from three directions, i.e. the pressing force of the elastic assembly 40 on the flange fork 50 along the first direction Y, the locking of the supporting unit 31 along the second direction X and the fixing of the first fixing assembly 20 on the flange fork 50, the vibration and deformation of the fork body 52 caused by the cantilever structure under the cutting force can be effectively inhibited, and the machining quality of the end surface of the flange plate 51 is ensured.

[0053] Specifically, the supporting unit 31 comprises a supporting body 311 and a limiting groove 312; the supporting body 311 is arranged in the third mounting groove 15; the limiting groove 312 is arranged in the supporting body 311 along the second direction X; the fixing unit 32 comprises a first fixing shaft 321 and a second fixing shaft 322 which are integrally formed; one end of the first fixing shaft 321 is clamped in the limiting groove 312, and the other end is connected with the second fixing shaft 322; the end of the second fixing shaft 322 away from the first fixing shaft 321 is clamped in the fork body 52 along the second direction X; the central axis of the fixing unit 32 coincides with the central axis of the fork body 52. The first fixing shaft 321 and the second fixing shaft 322 realize axial positioning, and the coincidence of the central axis with the central axis of the fork body 52 ensures the accuracy of positioning and provides an accurate process reference for the subsequent machining of the fork body 52 itself.

[0054] Further, the second fixing shaft 322 is in a conical frustum structure, the end close to the flange plate 51 of the second fixing shaft 322 has a taper, i.e. the diameter of the end close to the flange plate 51 is smaller than that of the other end, and the taper is adapted to the different diameters of the fork hole to ensure that the second fixing shaft 322 will not shake in the fork hole and affect the stability of the flange fork 50.

[0055] In the embodiment, please refer to Figures 4-6 In the second working condition, the second fixing assembly 30 is arranged in the third mounting groove 15, the second fixing assembly 30 comprises a supporting unit 31 and a fixing unit 32, the supporting unit 31 is arranged in the third mounting groove 15; the pressing member 42 presses the flange plate 51 into the second mounting groove 14 along the first direction Y; the fixing unit 32 penetrates the supporting unit 31 and is connected with the fork body 52; the central axis of the fork body 52 coincides with the center lines of the second mounting groove 14 and the third mounting groove 15 along the second direction X.

[0056] It can be understood that the flange plate 51 does not have the connecting hole 53 based on different processes of the machining center, and the end face of the flange plate 51 needs to be machined first, so the second fixing assembly 30 is used to fix the flange fork 50 on the bottom plate 11.

[0057] In the embodiment, the first tailing groove 16 is annularly arranged in the second mounting groove 14; a plurality of second tailing grooves 17 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the first tailing groove 16, and the second tailing grooves 17 are coincident with the projection of the connecting hole 53.

[0058] Exemplarily, the size of the second tailing groove 17 can be the same as that of the connecting hole 53, and the second tailing groove 17 is coincident with the projection of the connecting hole 53, so that the tailing can fall into the second tailing groove 17 from the connecting hole 53, and the cutting chips and the cooling liquid generated in the milling or drilling process can be effectively collected to prevent them from being accumulated under the positioning surface, the positioning pin 22 or the workpiece, thereby avoiding the problems of the positioning accuracy reduction and the workpiece installation out of position caused by the interference of the cutting chips, ensuring the stability of the machining quality and reducing the workload of cleaning and maintenance.

[0059] Embodiment two

[0061] S10, obtaining a first state or a second state of the flange fork 50;

[0062] S20, based on the first state, the pressing piece 42 presses the flange fork 50 to the first fixing assembly 20 in the first direction Y for fixing;

[0064] In step S20, the fixing unit 32 penetrates the supporting unit 31 and is connected with the flange fork 50 in the second direction X, and the center axis of the fixing unit 32 is coincident with the center axis of the fork body 52.

[0065] It can be understood that when the flange fork 50 is machined as a whole, the bottom surface of the flange fork 50 is first roughly machined, then the end surface of the flange plate 51 is machined with the bottom surface of the flange fork 50 as the reference surface, then the bottom surface of the flange fork 50 is finely machined with the end surface of the flange plate 51 as the reference surface, then the connecting hole 53 of the flange plate 51 is machined with the bottom surface of the flange fork 50 as the reference surface, and finally the fork body 52 is machined with the connecting hole 53 and the bottom surface of the flange fork 50 as the reference. Based on the above-mentioned layer-by-layer machining process, it is necessary to ensure that the bottom surface of the flange fork 50 is smooth, and the machining accuracy of the end surface of the flange plate 51 will be relatively high, and then the accuracy of the subsequent machining of other structures will be relatively high, and based on the fixing of the first fixing assembly 20, the pressing piece 42 and the second fixing assembly 30, the machining accuracy of the end surface of the flange fork 50 is high.

[0066] Those skilled in the art can understand that the above-mentioned embodiments are specific cases for implementing the present disclosure, and in actual application, various changes can be made in form and detail without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.
