[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0023] Please refer to Figure 2 The present application provides a technical solution: a shot blasting device for the semi-closed cavity of a disc-shaft integrated disc, comprising an L-shaped spray gun barrel 2, the inner cavity of the L-shaped spray gun barrel 2 is provided with a shot blasting channel 3, and the corner of the shot blasting channel 3 is provided with a first reflection pad 5 for reflecting the shot. The reflection pad is a metal material with strong impact resistance, and an impact resistance coating can usually be added.
[0024] The outer wall of the L-shaped spray gun barrel 2 is provided with a converging section 4 for forming an avoidance with the part to obtain a larger activity space. The first end of the L-shaped spray gun barrel 2 is provided with a circumferential keyway 1 for connecting with the outlet end of the shot blasting equipment.
[0025] The outlet of the L-shaped spray gun barrel 2 is circular, and the surface of the outlet is polished smooth without steps, burrs and other excesses that hinder the flow of the shot.
[0026] The slightly longer side of the L-shaped spray gun barrel 2 is 210 mm in length, and the slightly shorter side is 90 mm in length, which is usually a steel structure; the inner diameter of the shot blasting channel 3 is 10 mm; the outer diameter of the L-shaped spray gun barrel 2 is 19 mm, and the outer tube diameter after the diameter change is 15 mm.
[0027] Please refer to Figure 3The application also provides a technical solution, which is a twice-reflection structure, and the end of the L-shaped shot gun barrel 2 is provided with an inclined baffle 6 for changing the direction of the shot.
[0028] The inclined baffle 6 is inclined at an angle of 35 degrees with respect to the short side of the L-shaped shot gun barrel 2, and the inclined baffle 6 is provided with a second reflection pad. Since the shot needs to be reflected twice to be shot out, in order to ensure that the shot is normally shot out, the coverage area can reach 70 degrees, that is, gradually weakens from 35 degrees to both sides. In order to meet the shot shooting requirements, the end of the L-shaped shot gun barrel 2 and the inclined baffle 6 form an oval-shaped outlet 7, and the surface of the outlet is polished smooth without steps, burrs and other obstacles to the flow of the shot.
[0029] The slightly longer side of the L-shaped shot gun barrel 2 has a barrel length of 210 mm, and the slightly shorter side has a barrel length of 90 mm, which is usually a steel structure; the inner diameter of the shot channel 3 is 10 mm; the outer diameter of the L-shaped shot gun barrel 2 is 19 mm, and the outer diameter of the variable-diameter tube is 15 mm.
[0030] Please refer to Figures 4-6 The application provides a process method, which comprises the following steps: Step 1: The L-shaped shot gun barrel 2 with an inclined baffle 6 is used to enter from the disc side disc core, and reciprocate in the cavity along the lower edge of the spoke, and the disc is kept rotating to complete the shot peening of the spoke and a part of the R area (i.e. the transition corner of the spoke of the disc and the wall of the shaft neck cone barrel) in the cavity; Step 2: The L-shaped shot gun barrel 2 is used to enter from the disc side disc core, the shot gun is deviated by 25 degrees, and is moved to a position opposite the R area at the bottom of the inner cavity, and a fixed position shot peening method is used to complete the shot peening of the R area; Step 3: The L-shaped shot gun barrel 2 is used to enter from the disc side disc core, and is moved obliquely along the rotating arm at an angle of 35 degrees to complete the shot peening of the rotating arm part in the inner cavity.
[0031] The annular semi-closed cavity area of the workpiece is divided into three typical areas, which are the upper spoke horizontal area, the large transition R area at the bottom of the cavity and the inclined rotating arm area. Since the shot peening intensity in steps 1 and 2 is relatively high, and the shot peening intensity in step 3 is relatively low, the three areas are completed through steps 1-3 according to the structural characteristics of the three areas.
[0032] The processing of the upper spoke horizontal area, which is a typical spoke structure around the disc, is generally similar to a plane, and the difficulty lies in that it is poorly open and the closer to the large diameter, the smaller the space, and the greater the limitation on the nozzle. The L-shaped shot gun barrel 2 with an inclined baffle 6 is used for processing, and the shot flow coverage area of the nozzle reaches about 70 degrees, and the main shot flow direction is vertically upward and obliquely upward. Figure 4As shown, the part journal end is placed downward, the slightly longer side of the nozzle is connected to the equipment with a screw, and the slightly shorter side moves downward from top to bottom, passes through the disc core hole, and tightly adheres to the hub from small diameter to large diameter. The large diameter side is as close as possible to the inclined arm, leaving a gap, and attention should be paid to avoid collision. The verified process parameters are used for shot peening.
[0033] Processing of the cavity bottom large adapter R area, which is the deepest part of the annular cavity and the adapter part where the web surface intersects with the inclined arm surface. After step 1 is completed, there will still be unshot areas remaining, which need to be processed separately. For this structure, an L-shaped one-way reflection nozzle is used for processing, and a fixed-point shot peening method is used for the fixed position of the spray gun. As shown, the shot flow of the nozzle is horizontal, and with the increase of the distance from the part, it slightly diverges. The part journal end is placed downward, the slightly longer side of the nozzle is connected to the equipment with a screw, and the slightly shorter side moves downward from top to bottom, passes through the disc core hole, and is 25 degrees off from the horizontal direction. The nozzle is directly opposite the cavity bottom large adapter R area, and the distance between the nozzle and the sprayed surface is about 100 mm. Attention should be paid to the interference between the spray gun wall and the part to avoid collision. The verified process parameters are used for shot peening. Figure 6 Processing of the inclined arm area, which is a typical journal type product structure, similar to a trumpet-shaped tight structure. The part is approximately inclined at an angle of 35 degrees. Usually, the required shot intensity here is weak, and low-intensity processing is required. For this structure, an L-shaped one-way reflection nozzle is used for processing, and the spray gun runs along the 35-degree inclination of the arm structure, moving obliquely, as shown.
[0034] Figure 5 As shown, the shot flow of the nozzle is horizontal, and with the increase of the distance from the part, it slightly diverges. The part journal end is placed downward, the slightly longer side of the nozzle is connected to the equipment with a screw, and the slightly shorter side moves downward from top to bottom, passes through the disc core hole, and is 25 degrees off from the horizontal direction. The nozzle is directly opposite the cavity bottom large adapter R area, and the distance between the nozzle and the sprayed surface is about 100 mm. Attention should be paid to the interference between the spray gun wall and the part to avoid collision. The verified process parameters are used for shot peening.
[0035] After completing the shot peening of this part, the coverage rate needs to be checked. Since the closed cavity cannot be directly visually inspected, the endoscope probe can be inserted into the cavity to magnify 10 times to check the surface coverage rate. According to the coverage rate, the shot peening time and program points are adjusted until the design requirements are met. The processing of other areas of the part can be carried out according to the conventional shot peening process.
[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments can be modified or some technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalent features, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
