Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of support tooling design technology, specifically relating to a support tooling for a workpiece and a processing method. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, the rapidly developing coal chemical industry has seen the gasifier emerge as a crucial core piece of equipment. The gasifier's key feature is the chemical reaction between coal or coke and a gasifying agent at high temperatures, transforming the organic matter in the coal or coke into coal gas. This primarily involves the reaction between carbon in the solid fuel and oxygen, water, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen in the gaseous mixture. During the high-temperature operation of the equipment, a cooling medium is used to rapidly cool the high-temperature solid fuel within a short timeframe to prevent overheating.

[0003] During equipment operation, materials involved in high-temperature combustion are rapidly cooled through the cooling system. Passing through the cylindrical pipes connected to the cooling system, they are quickly cooled upon contact with the cooling medium, preventing deformation and damage to the cooling system and pipes. The equipment's ability to operate within its normal lifespan is closely related to the quality of the quench ring, a crucial component of the cooling system. The quench ring consists of a distribution box, short cylindrical sections, cooling medium inlet and outlet, inner ring, and outer ring. The distribution box and short cylindrical sections combine to form a vital cooling medium channel. The distribution box is machined from a solid annular forging. The distribution box has a hollow tubular structure, and its periphery typically includes multiple short pipes for cooling medium inlet and outlet. The machining process from a solid annular forging to a hollow tubular shape involves significant machining, requiring support before machining. Otherwise, severe vibrations during machining will occur, and the finished distribution box's rigidity will not meet design requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0012] In some embodiments, the outer periphery of both the first end and the second end of the screw is provided with external threads, and a smooth connection portion is provided between the two external threads.

[0013] In some embodiments, the support fixture further includes a base plate for placing the workpiece to be processed, and the clamping assembly includes: a support frame, a first end of which is connected to the base plate, and a second end of which extends vertically and is vertically spaced from the top of the frustum-shaped pressure block; and a vertical adjustment member installed at the second end of the support frame, the adjustment end of which can approach or move away from the frustum-shaped pressure block to clamp or release the frustum-shaped pressure block.

[0014] In some embodiments, a second inclined surface is provided between the top wall and the inner side wall of the receiving cavity, and a third inclined surface is provided between the top wall of the wedge block and the side away from the receiving space. The third inclined surface is also provided with a mounting groove.

[0045] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0046] The supporting fixture and processing method for the workpiece 100 of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the workpiece 100 to be processed and the supporting fixture according to an embodiment of the present invention; as shown Figure 2 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the workpiece 100 to be processed according to an embodiment of the present invention; as shown Figure 3 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of a support fixture provided according to an embodiment of the present invention; as follows: Figure 4 The diagram shown is a cross-sectional view of a frustum-shaped pressure block 30 provided according to an embodiment of the present invention. The workpiece 100 has a receiving cavity 101 inside, and the supporting fixture includes:

[0047] Multiple wedge-shaped blocks 20 are placed in the receiving cavity 101 and are arranged sequentially at intervals along the circumference of the receiving cavity 101. The multiple wedge-shaped blocks 20 form a receiving space 21. The side of the wedge-shaped block 20 facing the receiving space 21 has a first inclined surface 22. The top wall of the wedge-shaped block 20 and the side facing away from the receiving space 21 are both in contact with the inner wall of the receiving cavity 101.

[0048] A frustum-shaped pressing block 30 is disposed in the receiving space 21 and engages with the wedge-shaped surface of the first inclined surface 22.

[0049] The clamping assembly 40 is used to drive the frustum-shaped pressure block 30 to apply a compressive force to the plurality of wedge blocks 20, so that the plurality of wedge blocks 20 support the inner wall of the receiving cavity 101.

[0050] The workpiece 100 has an internal receiving cavity 101. During machining, vibration can easily occur in the workpiece 100, affecting the accuracy of the distribution box. Excessive clamping pressure from the outside can also cause irreversible deformation of the workpiece 100. Therefore, during machining, the workpiece 100 needs to be supported and clamped from within to facilitate machining of the holes and outer periphery.

[0051] This invention provides a supporting fixture comprising multiple wedge blocks 20, a frustum-shaped pressing block 30, and a clamping assembly 40. The multiple wedge blocks 20 enclose a receiving space 21. The side of each wedge block 20 facing away from the receiving space 21 and its top wall are in contact with the workpiece 100. The frustum-shaped pressing block 30 is disposed within the receiving space 21, and its circumferential direction forms a wedge-shaped surface engagement with the first inclined surface 22 of the multiple wedge blocks 20. When the frustum-shaped pressing block 30 applies a compressive force to the multiple wedge blocks 20, it can support and clamp the multiple wedge blocks 20 against the inner peripheral wall of the workpiece 100. The clamping assembly 40 can apply a force toward the base plate 10 to the frustum-shaped pressing block 30, causing the frustum-shaped pressing block 30 to compress the multiple wedge blocks 20, thereby supporting and clamping the multiple wedge blocks 20 against the inner wall of the workpiece 100. The aforementioned support fixture has a simple structure, low cost, and is easy to debug. It can support and clamp the workpiece 100 from inside, improve the processing accuracy of the workpiece 100, and ensure that the rigidity of the workpiece 100 after processing meets the design requirements.

[0052] In one specific embodiment, the structure of the workpiece 100 to be processed is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the workpiece 100 to be processed has a receiving cavity 101, and the inner peripheral wall of the receiving cavity 101 forms a hollow annular space, in which multiple wedge blocks 20 can be placed.

[0053] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 The diagram shown is a cross-sectional view of a plurality of wedge-shaped blocks 20 provided according to an embodiment of the present invention; as shown Figure 6 The diagram shown is a top view of a plurality of wedge blocks 20 provided according to an embodiment of the present invention. The supporting fixture also includes a base plate 10 for placing the workpiece to be processed. The plurality of wedge blocks 20 are arranged symmetrically at uniform intervals. The central axis of the receiving space 21 coincides with the central axis of the receiving cavity 101. The frustum pressure block 30 has a frustum-shaped structure and its outer diameter gradually tapers towards the base plate 10. The central axis of the receiving space 21 coincides with the central axis of the receiving cavity 101, and the plurality of wedge blocks 20 are arranged symmetrically and uniformly, allowing the frustum pressure block 30 to uniformly apply a compressive force to the plurality of wedge blocks 20. The outer diameter of the frustum pressure block 30 gradually tapers towards the base plate 10, so that when a downward force is applied to the frustum pressure block 30, the horizontal component of the compressive force can drive the frustum pressure block 30 to apply a clamping force along the circumferential direction of the receiving cavity 101, thereby supporting and clamping the workpiece 100 to be processed.

[0054] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the supporting fixture also includes a base plate 10 for placing the workpiece to be processed. The clamping assembly 40 includes a screw 41 and a clamping part 42. The first end of the screw 41 is inserted into a threaded hole and a locking hole 31 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole. The second end of the screw 41 extends out from the end of the frustum-shaped pressure block 30 away from the base plate 10. The clamping part 42 is a nut, which is fitted onto the second end of the screw 41 and threadedly connected to the screw 41. The nut is used to apply a vertical force toward the base plate 10 to the frustum-shaped pressure block 30. The first end of the screw 41 can be inserted into the threaded hole and the locking hole 31 and threadedly connected to the threaded hole. The second end of the screw 41 can extend out from the end of the frustum-shaped pressure block 30 away from the base plate 10. The nut can be fitted onto the second end of the screw 41 and threadedly connected to the second end of the screw 41. After tightening the nut, the nut can apply a downward force to the frustum-shaped pressure block 30 to drive the frustum-shaped pressure block 30 to apply a compressive force to the multiple wedge blocks 20. The aforementioned support fixture can apply force to the frustum pressure block 30 through a simple structure, achieving both convenience and structural stability.

[0055] In one embodiment, such as Figure 7 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the screw 41 provided according to an embodiment of the present invention. Both the first end and the second end of the screw 41 are provided with external threads 411 on their outer peripheries, and a smooth connecting portion 412 is provided between the two external threads 411. The two external threads 411 can be connected to the base plate 10 and the nut respectively, so that the base plate 10 can be fixed to the screw 41, the nut can apply a downward force to the frustum pressure block 30, and the smooth connecting portion 412 passes through the frustum pressure block 30, allowing the screw 41 to be installed and disassembled more smoothly.

[0056] In one embodiment, the support fixture further includes a base plate 10 for placing the workpiece to be processed. The clamping assembly 40 includes a support frame (not shown) and a vertical adjustment member (not shown). A first end of the support frame is connected to the base plate 10, and a second end of the support frame extends vertically and is vertically spaced from the top of the frustum-shaped pressure block 30. The vertical adjustment member is installed at the second end of the support frame, and its adjusting end can move closer to or further away from the frustum-shaped pressure block 30 to clamp or release it. In one specific embodiment, the length of the adjusting end of the vertical adjustment member is adjustable. When the adjusting end extends, it can clamp the frustum-shaped pressure block 30, causing the frustum-shaped pressure block 30 to apply pressure to the plurality of wedge blocks 20. When the adjusting end shortens, it can release the frustum-shaped pressure block 30, facilitating the removal of the frustum-shaped pressure block 30 and the plurality of wedge blocks 20 after processing. In another specific embodiment, the vertically adjustable member is a cylinder, and the adjusting end is a cylinder pressure block. Using the aforementioned clamping component 40, the frustum-shaped clamping block 30 can be clamped more conveniently, with simple operation and high clamping efficiency.

[0057] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1As shown, a second inclined surface 102 is provided between the top wall and the inner side wall of the receiving cavity 101, and a third inclined surface 23 is provided between the top wall of the wedge block 20 and the side facing away from the receiving space 21. The third inclined surface 23 also has a mounting groove (not shown in the figure). The support fixture for the workpiece 100 also includes multiple support members (not shown in the figure), the number of which is the same as the number of wedge blocks 20. One end of each support member has a tightening part, and the other end has a plug-in part. Multiple plug-in parts are inserted into multiple mounting grooves one by one, and the tightening part abuts against the second inclined surface 102. Different models of workpieces 100 have different inclination angles of the second inclined surface 102. To make the support fixture provided in this embodiment of the invention more versatile, this embodiment of the invention provides a mounting groove on the third inclined surface 23. Different models of support members can be inserted into the mounting groove so that the tightening part of the support member can fit against the second inclined surface 102, facilitating the support and clamping of the second inclined surface 102. The aforementioned support fixture can provide clamping support for various types of workpieces 100 to be processed, thus exhibiting greater adaptability.
