Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an internal cavity support device for machining cylindrical parts, belonging to the field of cylindrical part machining technology. Background Technology

[0002] In the processing of a certain cylindrical part, to save costs and reduce processing time, the blank for the cylindrical part is formed by extruding cylindrical bar stock through a stamping process. The stamped blank is characterized by a black skin on the inner and outer surfaces, and an irregular horseshoe shape is extruded at the opening. To provide a reference for subsequent machining and reduce wall thickness differences, a center hole needs to be drilled in the center of the end plate at the front end of the stamped blank. This center hole is crucial and is used until the finishing process is complete.

[0003] Currently, the support fixtures used for drilling center holes require a tapered mandrel to support the inner cavity opening of the blank. Due to the irregular horseshoe shape of the blank opening, it is not easy to place the blank correctly, which increases the wall thickness difference and also brings a lot of workload to the operator. Summary of the Invention

Therefore, this invention provides an internal cavity support device for machining cylindrical parts.

A set of circumferentially distributed locking and positioning holes are opened on the side wall of the front support sleeve. An annular connecting platform is provided on the outer edge of the rear port of the front support sleeve.

[0008] The outer edge of the front end of the rear support sleeve is machined with an annular connecting platform corresponding to the rear end of the front support sleeve.

The lower end of the card block is provided with a forward-expanding frustum surface.

[0010] The inner diameter of the retaining ring matches the inner diameter of the front support sleeve;

[0011] The front end of the pull rod is a support section that matches the inner diameter of the front support sleeve, and the rear end of the pull rod support section is a frustum positioning section that corresponds to the lower end of the locking block.

[0012] The front end of the pull rod is inserted into the inner cavity of the front support sleeve, and the truncated cone positioning section of the pull rod is axially aligned with the positioning holes of each locking block of the front support sleeve; each locking block of the front support sleeve is respectively installed in the positioning holes of the locking block, the locking ring is sleeved on the outer ring of the front support sleeve, and the locking ring passes through the locking ring positioning groove of each locking block, so that each locking block is radially limited in the positioning holes of the locking block of the front support sleeve;

[0013] The annular connecting platform at the front end of the rear support sleeve is fixed to the annular connecting platform at the rear end of the front support sleeve with screws; the pull rod drive device is installed between the inner bottom of the rear support sleeve and the rear end of the pull rod, and the pull rod drive device drives the pull rod to move backward, and the pull rod pushes each clamp block to extend radially outward through the frustum positioning section to clamp the inner wall of the cylindrical blank.

[0014] Beneficial effects

[0015] The internal cavity support device of the present invention has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. It can reliably support cylindrical parts with irregular openings, greatly reducing the labor intensity of workers. At the same time, it can straighten the blank, reduce the influence of the horseshoe shape at the opening of the blank, and reduce the influence of wall thickness difference during subsequent processing.
