[0039] Embodiment:
[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 7The expansion breaking device for the large machine connecting rod in the embodiment comprises a laser scoring machine workbench 1, an expansion breaking machine workbench 7, and a connecting rod 3.

[0042] The expansion breaking machine 6 comprises a small head positioning member 603 and an expansion block 605. The small head positioning member 603 is used for positioning the small head of the connecting rod 3, and the expansion block 605 is used for expansion breaking and limiting the big head of the connecting rod 3.
[0043] The small head positioning member 603 is provided with an anti-skid mechanism, which comprises an auxiliary member 6031 for top limiting, a positioning plate 6032 and a positioning head 6035 for vertical limiting, a positioning rotating arm 6038 and a positioning ring 6037 for horizontal limiting.
[0044] The laser scoring machine loading rack 4 further comprises a sliding block 403 for position adjusting support, a bottom plate 404, and a sliding plate 405. The sliding block 403 is slidingly arranged at the upper end of the bottom plate 404, and the bottom plate 404 is slidingly arranged at the upper end of the sliding plate 405. The small head positioning pin 401 is slidingly arranged at the upper end of the sliding block 403, and the big head positioning pin 402 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the laser scoring machine workbench 1.
[0045] The laser scoring machine workbench 1 is provided with a guide rail 406 for sliding guide support and a driving device 407 for sliding driving at the upper end. The sliding plate 405 is slidingly inserted into the guide rail 406, and the sliding plate 405 is fixedly arranged at the output end of the driving device 407.
[0046] The expansion breaking machine 6 further comprises an expansion breaking machine base 601 for position adjusting support and a tooling bottom plate 602. The expansion breaking machine base 601 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the expansion breaking machine workbench 7, and the tooling bottom plate 602 is slidingly arranged at the upper end of the expansion breaking machine base 601. The small head positioning member 603 is slidingly arranged at the upper end surface of the tooling bottom plate 602.
[0047] The big head pad 604 is slidingly arranged at the middle part of the upper end of the expansion breaking machine base 601, and the expansion block 605 is fixedly arranged at the middle part of the upper end of the big head pad 604. The pull rod 606 is slidingly arranged at the middle part of the expansion block 605.
[0048] The expansion breaking machine 6 further comprises a connecting rod positioning oil cylinder 607 for expansion block 605 and big head pressing positioning of the connecting rod 3. The expansion breaking machine workbench 7 is provided with a hydraulic machine 5 for moving support of the pull rod 606 at one side.
[0049] This application mainly consists of a laser marking machine workbench 1, a laser marking machine 2, a laser marking feeding rack 4, a hydraulic press 5, a fracture expansion machine 6, and a fracture expansion machine workbench 7. The specific installation and connection methods can be installed according to the corresponding installation specifications, such as fixing by bolts, which are conventional technical means. Therefore, they are not described in detail.
[0050] During operation, the parameters of the laser marking machine worktable 1 are first adjusted to determine the position of the laser head and the laser parameters. Then, the laser marking loading rack 4 is adjusted. Through the drive device 407, the slide plate 405 can be moved laterally along the guide rail 406 to accommodate connecting rods 3 of different lengths. After determining the position of the slide plate 405, the positions of the base plate 404 and the slider 403 are adjusted so that the relative positions of the small end positioning pin 401 and the large end positioning pin 402 can be used to fix the small end and the large end of the connecting rod 3. The connecting rod 3 is firmly fixed to the position to be processed. Then, the laser marking machine 2 is started to process the cracking groove of the predetermined size at the predetermined position, and then the next process is started.
[0051] After the connecting rod 3 with the cracking groove is processed, it is transferred to the fracture expansion machine 6. First, according to the size of the connecting rod 3, the appropriate expansion block 605, tie rod 606 and small end positioning part 603 are selected. Then, the relative positions of the tooling base plate 602 fixed to the base 601 of the fracture expansion machine are adjusted to ensure that the large and small ends of the connecting rod 3 are respectively stuck in the expansion block 605 and the small end positioning part 603. The fracture expansion machine 6 is started, and the connecting rod positioning cylinder 607 is started to press the large end of the connecting rod 3 firmly against the expansion block 605. At the same time, the tie rod 606 moves downward under the action of the hydraulic press 5. By setting the structure of the tie rod 606 as a wedge-shaped section, its movement will laterally squeeze the expansion block 605. The expansion block 605 squeezes the large end of the connecting rod 3, subjecting it to the fracture load. A high stress concentration is formed in the root area of the cracking groove, and cracks are generated at the root of the groove, which rapidly expand and undergo low-stress brittle fracture, realizing the fracture separation of the connecting rod 3 body and the connecting rod 3 cover.
[0052] Laser marking can also be achieved through broaching.
[0053] Among them, the fracture breakage method is generally only used on small connecting rods. For large machine connecting rods with a length >300mm and a large end hole diameter >150mm, there is currently no application. Laser marking is used to process the fracture groove, which is more efficient than the traditional broaching process. Especially for large machine connecting rods, the fracture groove size and depth are required to be larger. The fracture groove of traditional connecting rods is 0.5mm, while that of large machine connecting rods is 0.6~1.1mm. The fracture breakage machine uses a larger hydraulic press to provide a larger fracture load to complete the fracture breakage operation of large machine connecting rods.
[0054] The movement and positioning in the above-mentioned motion process can be moved and fixed by means of motors, cylinders, lead screws, bolts, etc. The setting and use of the corresponding components are conventional technical means and are well-known to those in the mechanical field. Therefore, this part has not been described in detail.
[0055] Among them, slide rails and grooves are provided on the slide plate 405, base plate 404, and slider 403, and corresponding fastening screw holes are provided. The tooling base plate 602 and the small end positioning part 603 are provided with corresponding slide rails and grooves and screw holes for fastening. The angle and number of the above slide rails and grooves are compatible and can be used for various specifications of connecting rods 3. The setting and use of the above slide rails, grooves, and screw holes are all existing conventional technologies, so they are not described in detail.
[0056] Please see Figure 7 - Figure 8 The anti-slip mechanism also includes a rotating frame 6033 for rotational support. There are at least three rotating frames 6033, and the three rotating frames 6033 are evenly distributed in an array on the upper surface of the auxiliary component 6031. The auxiliary component 6031 has the same horizontal cross-sectional specifications as the small-end positioning component 603. One side surface of the positioning plate 6032 is provided with an arc-shaped groove that can be inserted into the rotating frame 6033.
[0057] The lower half of the positioning plate 6032 has a positioning hole 6034 through it. The positioning head 6035 passes through the positioning hole 6034 and is fixedly set in the middle of the outer surface of the small-head positioning part 603. The positioning head 6035 has a positioning groove 6036 on both sides. The positioning groove 6036 is inserted into the positioning arm 6038 and the positioning protrusion 6039. The upper half of the outer side of the positioning head 6035 is inserted into the positioning ring 6037, which passes through the positioning arm 6038.
[0058] The positioning protrusion 6039 is fixedly installed at one end of the positioning rotating arm 6038. The two positioning rotating arms 6038 are symmetrically arranged on the corresponding sides of the positioning plate 6032. The outer arc-shaped side of the positioning protrusion 6039 is fixedly provided with a protruding strip. The inner arc-shaped surface of the positioning groove 6036 is provided with a limiting strip that matches the protruding strip.
[0059] First, the specifications of the positioning plate 6032 and its corresponding components can be manually adjusted and replaced according to the size of the connecting rod 3, and the anti-slip mechanism can be set above the laser marking machine worktable 1 and the expansion and breaking machine worktable 7 according to the usage.
[0060] After fixing the small end of connecting rod 3 onto the small end positioning part 603, first cover the auxiliary part 6031 from above the small end of connecting rod 3, then rotate the positioning plate 6032 to make the positioning hole 6034 and the positioning head 6035 insert and position. Then rotate the positioning arm 6038 to make the positioning protrusion 6039 rotate into the positioning groove 6036. At this time, under the protruding structure of the positioning protrusion 6039 itself, and under the mutual limiting of the protrusion and the limiting strip, the positioning protrusion 6039 and the inner wall of the positioning groove 6036 are subject to both compression and insertion. Then, the positioning ring 6037 is lowered so that it can be inserted and limited simultaneously with the positioning head 6035 and the positioning arm 6038. The positioning arm 6038 is limited inside the positioning groove 6036, achieving the effect of double limiting of the positioning plate 6032 and the positioning head 6035, and double limiting of the auxiliary part 6031 and the small end positioning part 603. This achieves the upper limit of the vertical direction of the small end of the connecting rod 3, preventing it from shifting upward due to excessive tension, which would affect the connection stability when it breaks, and improving the strength of the positioning of the connecting rod 3 during processing.
[0061] The actual number of positioning plates 6032 used can be adjusted according to the fixed angle of the connecting rod 3;
[0062] Among them, under the insertion and rotation of the positioning plate 6032 and the rotating frame 6033, the arc groove inside the positioning plate 6032 is larger than half a circle, which can ensure that it is easy to move without affecting the rotation. When it is fixed for use, its whole body is in a vertical state, which does not affect the stability of the connection.
[0063] The positioning ring 6037 has the same arc shape as the positioning head 6035, and it can be completely inserted into the positioning head 6035. The recessed areas on both sides of the positioning ring 6037 are convenient for manual clamping and movement.
[0064] A method for fracture expansion of a connecting rod in a large machine includes the following steps:
[0065] S1: Install the connecting rod 3 on the laser marking feeder 4, and fix the position of the connecting rod 3 by adjusting the relative positions of the small-end positioning pin 401, the large-end positioning pin 402 and the slider 403.
[0066] S2: Use laser scribing machine 2 to longitudinally cut a suitable fracture groove inside the large head;
[0067] S3: After the workpiece fracture groove is processed, it is transferred to the expansion machine 6 station installed on the expansion machine workbench 7 for expansion operation;
[0068] S4: Place the large end of connecting rod 3 into the expansion block 605, and simultaneously adjust the relative positions of the tooling base plate 602 and the small end positioning part 603. Use the anti-slip mechanism to firmly fix the small end of connecting rod 3. Start the equipment, and the connecting rod positioning cylinder 607 presses the large end of connecting rod 3 firmly against the expansion block 605. Under the action of the hydraulic press 5, the pull rod 606 moves downward and squeezes the expansion block 605, causing the large end of connecting rod 3 to expand under force, generating an expansion load perpendicular to the fracture surface. A high stress concentration is formed in the fracture groove root area, and cracks are generated at the groove root, which rapidly expand and undergo low-stress brittle fracture, realizing the fracture separation of the connecting rod body and the connecting rod cap.
[0069] The installation, connection, or setting methods disclosed in this embodiment are all common mechanical connection methods. As long as they can achieve their beneficial effects, they can be implemented. Therefore, this embodiment will not elaborate on their specific structural composition and working principle.
[0070] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
