[0004] At present, four lugs are usually spot-welded on conical thin-walled parts, and then the parts are aligned by dialing. When tightening, the operator's hand needs to enter through the hole on the small end face of the thin-walled part and tighten the bolts with a wrench, which is difficult to operate and affects the quality of the processed products and production efficiency.

[0012] In one of the technical solutions disclosed in the utility model, a through hole is provided at the center of the small end surface of the centering sleeve.

[0013] In one of the technical solutions disclosed in the present utility model, the clamping mechanism includes: a positioning shaft, which is arranged on the support frame; and a bolt, which is threadedly connected to the positioning shaft.

[0014] In one of the technical solutions disclosed in the present utility model, one end of the positioning shaft connected to the bolt extends through the through hole to the outside of the small end surface of the centering sleeve.

[0031] The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] The utility model discloses a fixture for vertical lathe machining of tapered thin-walled parts, as shown in the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, it includes a support frame 1, a centering sleeve 2 and a clamping mechanism 3; taking the processing of a typical rotating conical thin-walled part (hereinafter referred to as part) 4 as an example, when the outer circle is processed, the centering sleeve 2 is used to achieve rapid centering. In this embodiment, the lower plane (i.e., the large end face) of the part 3 is represented by the A surface, and the upper plane (i.e., the small end face) of the part 1 is represented by the B surface, and the inner hole processing is performed on the B surface, and the outer circle processing is performed on the outer conical surface.

[0033] Specifically, the support frame 1 can be connected and fixed to the rotating table of the vertical lathe, and has a bearing surface C that matches the A surface of the part 4 to bear the part 4. The centering sleeve 2 has a centering hole 21 with at least one end open, and the centering hole 21 is configured to accommodate one end of the part 4 corresponding to the B surface, and the open end of the centering hole 21 is provided with a positioning surface 211 that contacts and positions the outer conical surface of the part 4, and the inner diameter of the positioning surface 211 is configured to be larger than the outer diameter of the B surface and smaller than the outer diameter of the A surface. When the centering sleeve 2 contacts the part 4, the positioning surface 211 is coaxial with the axis of the outer conical surface of the part 4, thereby limiting the circumference of the part 4. The clamping mechanism 3 is connected to the centering sleeve 2, and the centering sleeve 2 is linked to move the positioning surface 211 of the centering sleeve 2 to contact the outer conical surface of the part 3, thereby completing the centering and clamping of the part 4, waiting for the vertical lathe to perform external cylindrical processing.

[0034] In this embodiment, the positioning surface 211 is configured as an inner conical surface that matches the outer conical surface of the part 4, so that the positioning surface 211 and the part 4 are in close contact to improve the stability of clamping.

[0035] Compared with the prior art of spot welding four lugs on parts, in terms of rounding, firstly, it solves the problems of inconvenient clamping operation in the prior art, secondly, it reduces the time for processing the lugs, spot welding, knocking off the lugs and grinding the spot welds, and thirdly, it reduces the difficulty of clamping, thereby improving the processing efficiency.

[0036] In some embodiments, the support frame 1 is connected and fixed to the rotating worktable of the vertical lathe by a plurality of bolts.

[0037] The positioning surface 211 has three arc segments evenly distributed around the circumference, thereby reducing the influence of the large cone diameter tolerance on the positioning accuracy when stamping the part 4, and reducing the deformation of the part 4 when pressing. It can be understood that the arc segment can also be two or four segments, etc., and this embodiment is not limited to this.

[0038] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism 3 includes a positioning shaft 31 disposed on the support frame 1 and a bolt 32 threadedly connected to the positioning shaft 31. Among them, one end of the positioning shaft 31 can pass through the B surface of the part 4 and extend to the outside of the part 4 (that is, one end of the positioning shaft 31 is higher than the B surface); the end of the centering sleeve 2 away from the positioning surface 211 is provided with a through hole 212 that cooperates with the positioning shaft 31, so that the positioning shaft 31 can pass through.

[0039] When machining the outer circle, firstly, the outer circle of the circumference-finding positioning shaft 31 is used to realize the centering correction of the support frame 1 and the rotary worktable; then, the centering sleeve 2 is mounted on the positioning shaft 31 through the through hole 212, and the bolt 32 is turned to move the centering sleeve 2 downward, so that the positioning surface 211 contacts the outer conical surface of the part 4, thus completing the centering and clamping of the part 4. The overall structure is simple and easy to operate, which is conducive to reducing costs, and has good self-locking performance and strong practicality.

[0040] In order to shorten the tightening time, an open washer 33 may be provided between the centering sleeve 2 and the bolt 32 during actual use.

[0041] In some embodiments, the centering sleeve 2 is conical; and a tapered hole with a gradually decreasing aperture is provided on its large end face in the direction toward the small end face, and the taper of the tapered hole is the same as the taper of the outer tapered surface of the part 3 to form a centering hole 21; and the through hole 212 is arranged in the central area of ​​the small end face of the centering sleeve 2.

[0042] In order to reduce the weight of the centering pressing sleeve 2 and facilitate the operation of the staff, a plurality of hollow grooves 213 are opened on the small end surface of the centering pressing sleeve 2 along the circumference of the through hole 212.

[0043] As a specific implementation of the above embodiment, the support frame 1 is provided with a plurality of assembly holes along the circumference that cooperate with the rotating worktable for installing studs, and is connected and fixed to the rotating worktable of the vertical lathe through nuts. It has a simple structure, is convenient for disassembly and installation, and is easy to manufacture.

[0044] It can be seen from the above description that the working principle and beneficial effects of the embodiment of the utility model are:

[0045] By using the large end face of part 4 as the positioning reference, the horizontal rotational freedom of part 4 is limited by the bearing surface of the support frame 1 ( , ) and the vertical displacement degrees of freedom ( ), and limits the horizontal displacement freedom of part 4 by means of a positioning surface 211 coaxial with the outer cone surface of part 4 ( , ); As for the vertical rotational freedom ( ), from the perspective of processing requirements, there is no restriction. Because when a batch of workpieces are positioned on the tooling, even if the positions of each workpiece around the vertical circumference are different, it does not affect the processing requirements; the overall structure of the tooling is simple and easy to operate, which solves the problem of difficult clamping and alignment when processing such parts, thereby providing a practical and low-cost solution for efficient and stable turning of such parts, and has strong practicality; further, the positioning surface 211 is an inner cone surface, so that the positioning surface 211 and the part 4 can be in close contact, which is conducive to improving the stability of clamping. At the same time, the positioning surface 211 has three arc segments evenly distributed on the circumference, which can reduce the influence of the large cone diameter tolerance on the positioning accuracy when stamping the part 4, and reduce the deformation of the part 4 during pressing; finally, the fastener 3 is clamped by a threaded positioning shaft 31 and a bolt 32, which has a simple structure and is easy to operate, and has good self-locking performance, which can meet the production requirements.

[0046] The specific implementation methods described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the utility model in detail. It should be understood that the above description is only the specific implementation method of the utility model and is not used to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
