Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of machining technology, specifically relating to a milling fixture and clamping method for the end face of the bending and twisting support plate of a diffuser section component. Background Technology

[0002] The diffuser assembly is an important component of the engine, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the assembly consists of an inner ring 1, an outer ring, and multiple bending and twisting support plates 2. During assembly, the inner ring 1 and the multiple bending and twisting support plates 2 are first assembled together to form a component, which is then assembled into the inner surface of the outer ring. Because the inner ring 1 and the outer ring are thin-walled parts, the parts undergo some deformation after machining, preventing the component from being smoothly assembled into the inner surface of the outer ring. One solution is to leave a certain machining allowance on the end face of the bending and twisting support plates 2, assemble the inner ring 1 and the bending and twisting support plates 2 together, and then mill the end face of the bending and twisting support plates 2. Because the inner ring 1 and the torsion support plate 2 are connected by screws, and the radial dimension of the torsion support plate 2 is large, milling using common clamping methods results in significant deformation of the part during clamping, severe vibration during machining, and substandard end face dimensions of the machined torsion support plate. Manual grinding of the end face of the torsion support plate 2 is still required, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient. It also cannot guarantee that the assembly clearance between the end face of the torsion support plate 2 and the inner surface of the outer ring is less than 0.05mm. During test runs, the engine speed is high, and a large assembly clearance between the torsion support plate 2 and the outer ring can easily cause vibration and even detachment, posing safety hazards. Therefore, it is necessary to design a suitable milling fixture to solve the problems existing in the machining of the torsion support plate 2, thereby obtaining a torsion support plate 2 that meets the requirements, ultimately satisfying the assembly clearance requirements, and ensuring the engine's test performance.

All modifications, substitutions and alterations made based on ordinary technical knowledge and common practices in the art without departing from the above-described technical concept of the present invention are included within the scope of the present invention.

[0017] like Figures 2-9 As shown, this invention provides a milling fixture for the end face of the bending and twisting support plate of a diffuser section assembly. The milling fixture includes a base plate 3, a lower eyelet screw 4, a support block 5, a lower bracket 6, a lower clamping screw 7, a lower cover plate 8, a first B-type handle 9, a first screw 10, a positioning ring 11, a second screw 12, an upper bracket 13, a third screw 14, a pressure plate 15, a connecting plate 16, a first bushing 17, a fixed positioning pin 18, a second bushing 19, an open washer 20, a locking nut 21, a central column 22, an upper eyelet screw 23, a fourth screw 24, a base 25, a cover plate 26, a movable handle clamping screw 27, a first rubber pad 28, a fifth screw 29, an upper clamping screw 30, a second rubber pad 31, a sixth screw 32, a lower insert 33, an upper insert 34, an adjusting support 35, a seventh screw 36, and a second B-type handle 37.

[0018] The base plate 3 has multiple grooves and screw holes in the circumferential direction. The support block 5 is set in the groove of the base plate 3. The support block 5 and the cover plate 2 are connected by the seventh screw 36 to form an "I" shaped structure. The adjusting support 35 is fixed to the base plate 3 by the fifth screw 29. The movable handle clamping screw 27 passes through the threaded hole on the adjusting support 35 and connects to the support block 5. Rotating the movable handle clamping screw 27 causes the support block 5 to slide radially along the groove, so that the inclined surface of the support block 5 supports the lower end face of the bending and twisting support plate 2. Multiple lower inserts 33 support structures are set on the base plate 3. The lower bracket 6 is fixed to the base plate 3 by the sixth screw 32. A square through groove is set on the lower insert 33. The lower cover plate 8 is connected to the lower bracket 6 by the first screw 10. The second rubber pads 31 are attached to both sides of the lower insert 33. The lower clamping screw 7 passes through the stepped hole on the lower insert 33 and connects to the upper protrusion of the lower bracket 6. Figure 6 The lower bracket 6 has a cubic protrusion at its upper end connected by a threaded hole. Rotating the lower clamping screw 7 allows the lower insert 33 to slide radially, enabling the second rubber pads 31 on both sides of the lower insert 33 to support the lower ends of the two sides of the bending and torsion support plate 2. The base 25 is fixed to the base plate 3 by screws. Figure 5 The upper surface of the base 25 is provided with a positioning ring 11 and a central column 22, which are fixedly connected by screws. The upper end of the positioning ring 11 is provided with a positioning stop for the inner circular surface of the small diameter end of the inner ring 1. The upper end of the central column 22 has a stepped surface, on which a connecting plate 16 is provided and fixedly connected by screws. The pressure plate 15 is provided on the connecting plate 16, and a fixed positioning pin 18 is provided on the connecting plate 16 for positioning the pressure plate 15 on the connecting plate 16. A second bushing 19 is provided between the pressure plate 15 and the central column 22. The pressure plate 15 is also provided with a first bushing 17 and a positioning stop. The positioning stop is used to support the inner circular surface of the large diameter end of the inner ring 1. Multiple upper inserts 34 are provided on the lower end face of the pressure plate 15. The upper end of the upper bracket 13 is connected to the pressure plate 15 by a third screw 14, and the lower end is provided with an "I" shaped structure. The upper insert 34 is provided with a semi-closed groove. The two sides of the upper insert 34 are attached with first rubber pads 28. The upper clamping screw 30 passes through the stepped hole on the upper insert 34 and connects to the threaded hole of the upper bracket 13. Rotating the upper clamping screw 30 allows the upper insert 34 to slide radially, so that the first rubber pads 28 on both sides of the upper insert 34 support the upper ends of the two sides of the bending and torsion support plate 2. An open washer 20 and a locking nut 21 are also provided on the upper end of the central column 22 for pressing the pressure plate 15 and fixing it to the connecting plate 16.

[0019] Four lower eyelet screws 4 are also provided on the base plate 3.

[0020] The pressure plate 15 is also equipped with 4 upper eyelet screws 23.

[0021] Rotate the movable handle and tighten the screw 27 to make the support block 5 slide radially along the slide groove, so that the inclined surface of the support block 5 supports the lower end surface of the bending and twisting support plate 2.

[0022] Rotating the upper clamping screw 30 causes the upper insert 34 to slide radially, allowing the first rubber pads 28 on both sides of the upper insert to support the upper ends of both sides of the bending and torsion support plate 2. Figure 9 The upper insert 34 has a stepped hole on one end face, and the upper clamping screw 30 also has a stepped structure with a thread on one end, which connects to the upper bracket 13. When the upper clamping screw 30 is rotated clockwise, it will cause the upper insert 34 to move inward radially, thereby supporting the two sides of the adjacent bending and twisting support plate 2 with the first rubber pads 28 on both sides of the upper insert 34. After the bending and twisting support plate 2 is milled, when the upper clamping screw 30 is rotated counterclockwise, the upper insert 34 will not move outward radially. At this time, it is necessary to grasp the second B-type handle 37 fixed on the surface of the upper insert 34 and apply an outward pulling force to move the upper insert 34 outward.

[0023] Rotating the lower clamping screw 7 causes the lower insert 33 to slide radially, allowing the second rubber pads 31 on both sides of the lower insert 33 to support the lower ends of both sides of the bending and twisting support plate 2. After the bending and twisting support plate 2 is milled, rotating the lower clamping screw 7 counterclockwise will not cause the lower insert 33 to move outward radially. At this time, it is necessary to grasp the first B-type handle 9 fixed on the surface of the lower insert 33 and apply an outward pulling force to move the lower insert 33 outward.

[0024] Before milling the bending and torsion support plate 2, arbitrarily select two adjacent bending and torsion support plates 2, and slide the upper insert 34 and the lower insert 33 respectively, so that the two support surfaces of the upper insert 34 are in contact with the upper ends of the side surfaces of the two bending and torsion support plates 2, and at the same time, the two support surfaces of the lower insert 33 are in contact with the lower ends of the side surfaces of the two bending and torsion support plates 2, and then fix the pressure plate 15. Then slide the remaining upper insert 34 and lower insert 33 in sequence, so that the two support surfaces of the upper insert 34 are in contact with the upper ends of the side surfaces of the remaining bending and torsion support plates 2.

[0025] A milling and clamping method for the end face of the bending and torsion support plate of a diffuser section assembly, employing... Figures 2-9 The milling fixture shown includes the following steps: (1) Loosen the locking nut 21, hoist the eye bolt 23, and remove the pressure plate 15; (2) Lift the lower lifting eye bolt 4, place the milling fixture on the milling machine worktable, align the positioning ring 11 positioning stop with the center of the worktable, and fix the milling fixture on the worktable. (3) Place the inner ring 1 of the parts to be processed (the inner ring 1 and the bending and twisting support plate 2 assembled as one piece) through the central column 22 and place the inner circular surface of the small diameter end of the axial direction on the positioning stop of the positioning ring 11. (4) The lifting eye bolt 23 is hoisted, the first bushing 17 on the pressure plate 15 passes through the fixed positioning pin 18 on the connecting plate 16, and the positioning stop on the pressure plate 15 positions the inner circle of the inner ring 1 with the large diameter end in the axial direction. (5) Rotate the upper clamping screw 30 and the lower clamping screw 7 corresponding to two adjacent bending and twisting support plates 2 so that the rubber pads (first rubber pad 28 and second rubber pad 31) on both sides of the upper insert 34 and the lower insert 33 just contact the side of the bending and twisting support plate 2, and rotate the locking nut 21 to fix the pressure plate 15 on the connecting plate 16. (6) Use a dial indicator to check the end face to be milled of the bending and twisting support plate 2. First, adjust the support structure of the upper insert 34 and the support structure of the lower insert 33 (radial sliding) respectively so that the rubber pads on both sides of the upper insert 34 and the lower insert 33 support the side of the bending and twisting support plate 2. Then adjust the tightening screw 27 of the movable handle so that the inclined surface on the support block 5 supports the lower end face of the bending and twisting support plate 2. Ensure that the difference in the value of the dial indicator before and after the support of the bending and twisting support plate 2 is not greater than 0.02mm. Repeat the above process to complete the support between all adjacent bending and twisting support plates 2. (7) After confirming that all upper inserts 34, lower inserts 33 and support blocks 5 support the bending and twisting support plate 2, the end face of the bending and twisting support plate 2 is milled. Select appropriate tools and cutting parameters to mill the end face of the bending and twisting support plate 2 to the required size (the upper inserts 34, lower inserts 33 and support blocks 5 are removed only after all the end faces of the bending and twisting support plate 2 have been processed to meet the requirements).

9. A milling and clamping method for the end face of a bending and torsion support plate of a diffuser section assembly, wherein multiple bending and torsion support plates (2) are assembled on the outer surface of an inner ring (1) to form a component, characterized in that, Milling clamping methods include: The inner ring (1) is clamped in such a way that the small diameter end of the inner ring (1) is facing down and the large diameter end of the inner ring (1) is facing up, and a clamping force is applied along the axis of the inner ring (1) at the small diameter end and the large diameter end of the inner ring (1) respectively. The clamping of the bending and twisting support plate (2) involves applying an upward supporting force to the lower end of each bending and twisting support plate (2) and applying a supporting force to the side surface of the bending and twisting support plate (2) between the side surfaces of every two adjacent bending and twisting support plates (2). One supporting force is close to the upper end of the side surface of the bending and twisting support plate (2), and the other supporting force is close to the lower end of the side surface of the bending and twisting support plate (2). All supporting forces corresponding to the upper end of the side surface of the bending and twisting support plate (2) are in the same plane, and all supporting forces corresponding to the lower end of the side surface of the bending and twisting support plate (2) are in another plane. The two planes are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the axis of the inner ring (1).

10. The milling clamping method according to claim 9, characterized in that: The milling fixture of claim 1 is used, and the process includes the following steps: Step 1: After removing the pressure plate (15), hoist the milling fixture onto the milling machine table, align the positioning stop of the positioning ring (11) with the center of the milling machine table, and then fix the milling fixture on the milling machine table. Step 2: Place the assembled inner ring (1) and bending and twisting support plate (2) into the milling fixture until the axial small diameter end of the inner ring (1) enters the positioning stop of the positioning ring (11); Step 3: Press the pressure plate (15) downwards onto the axial large diameter end of the inner ring (1) until the axial large diameter end of the inner ring (1) enters the positioning stop of the pressure plate (15). Step 4: Select any two adjacent bending and twisting support plates (2), and slide the upper insert (34) and the lower insert (33) respectively, so that the two support surfaces of the upper insert (34) are in contact with the upper end of the side surface of the two bending and twisting support plates (2) respectively, and at the same time, the two support surfaces of the lower insert (33) are in contact with the lower end of the side surface of the two bending and twisting support plates (2) respectively. Then fix the pressure plate (15). Step 5: Use a dial indicator to check the end face of the bending and twisting support plate (2) to obtain the initial reading. Then, continue to slide the upper insert (34) and the lower insert (33) so that the two support surfaces of the upper insert (34) and the two support surfaces of the lower insert (33) continue to apply support force to the side surface of the bending and twisting support plate (2). Then slide the support block (5) so that the inclined surface of the support block (5) supports the lower end face of the bending and twisting support plate (2) upward. Observe the change of the dial indicator reading and ensure that it is not greater than the set value. Then, take any one of the two bending and twisting support plates (2) as the starting position and select the other bending and twisting support plate (2) adjacent to it to repeat step 5 until the support of the remaining bending and twisting support plates (2) is completed. Step 6: After confirming that all the bending and twisting support plates (2) have completed their support, start milling the end faces of the bending and twisting support plates (2) until the end face milling of all the bending and twisting support plates (2) is completed.
