Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ring rolling machines, in particular to a ring rolling machine capable of preventing ring flash. Background Art

[0002] Ring rolling machine is a kind of rotary forging equipment. According to the structural characteristics of ring rolling equipment, it can be divided into two categories: vertical ring rolling machine and horizontal ring rolling machine. Among them, vertical ring rolling machine is suitable for medium and small rings, and is widely used in the plastic forming of rings such as inner and outer rings of bearings, wheel rims, railway wheel hoops, steam turbines, aircraft engines, aerospace equipment, etc. The vertical ring rolling machine is a core roller driven by an electric motor to rotate. In the process of downward pressure on the main shaft, it forms a pair of rollers with the core roller, and the ring blank on the core roller is repeatedly rolled. The inner and outer diameters of the ring are expanded, and the wall thickness is reduced, and the ring is gradually formed.

[0003] In the existing technical solutions, during the rolling process, due to the lack of axial restriction on the ring, the ring is prone to extend in the axial direction to form flash, which leads to increased subsequent deburring work, increased workers' workload, prolonged ring manufacturing time, and increased processing costs.

[0004] For example, the anti-flash ring rolling machine with authorization announcement number CN 216540682 U has a rolling groove on the outer circumferential wall of the rolling wheel, and a rolling part matched with the rolling groove is provided on the rolling shaft. When rolling the ring blank, the rolling part enters the rolling groove to confine the ring blank in the rolling groove, that is, the ring blank is subjected to the rolling pressure in the rolling groove throughout the entire process and is rolled into a ring-shaped part with an increased inner diameter. The ring blank is confined by the rolling groove in the axial direction. However, this kind of rolling wheel with a rolling groove has very high requirements on the strength of the rolling wheel, and the width of the rolling groove is constant, so the ring parts larger than the width of the rolling groove cannot be used; and the depth of the rolling groove is limited. For the ring parts with larger diameters, although it can prevent flash, the overall flatness of the ring parts cannot be guaranteed.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model proposes a ring rolling machine for preventing ring flash. Summary of the invention

Driven by the mobile cylinder, the lifting cylinder slides on the mobile track.

[0013] The support structure includes a support roller, a support frame, a support cylinder, a support guide shaft and a support top rod; the bottom of the support frame is arranged on the cylinder rod of the lifting cylinder, and the support frame is transversely provided with three horizontal movement channels;

[0015] Preferably, the side shape of the ejection roller is one of circular, rectangular and elliptical.

[0016] Preferably, the side shape of the supporting roller is one of circular, rectangular and elliptical.

[0017] Preferably, the ejection assembly further comprises a guide copper sleeve, which is arranged at the ends of the upper and lower lateral movement channels, and protects the guide shaft and the lateral movement channel during the movement of the guide shaft in the lateral movement channel, thereby reducing wear and extending service life.

[0018] Preferably, the ejection assembly further comprises a fixed round nut, the diameter of the connection between the guide shaft and the ejection roller is smaller than that of other parts of the guide shaft, the fixed round nut is sleeved on the small diameter section of the guide shaft, the side of the fixed round nut is in contact with the ejection roller, the position of the fixed round nut is fixed, and the outer diameter of the fixed round nut is larger than the inner diameter of the lateral moving channel, so that the ejection roller and the ejection frame will not be in direct contact, collision is avoided during the movement of the ejection roller, and various components are protected.

Then the moving cylinder drives the lifting cylinder to drive the entire support structure to approach the ring blank. When it is about to contact, the moving cylinder stops moving.

[0022] Then the support cylinder drives the support roller to approach the ring blank until the support roller contacts the other side of the ring blank, and then the lifting cylinder extends the cylinder rod, so that the support assembly moves upward as a whole, approaches the mandrel but does not contact the mandrel, and provides support to the side of the ring blank to the greatest extent;

[0023] Then the ejector cylinder drives the ejector roller to approach the ring blank until the ejector roller is in close contact with the side of the ring blank;

[0024] Then the ring rolling machine starts to operate, the pressure shaft moves down until it is close to the ring blank, the core shaft starts to rotate to drive the ring blank to rotate, and the pressure shaft continuously applies vertical pressure to the ring blank while the ring blank rotates. The inner and outer walls of the ring blank are continuously squeezed during the rotation process, so that the difference between the inner diameter and the outer diameter gradually decreases and the thickness gradually increases. During this process, the length of the cylinder rod of the supporting cylinder remains unchanged, and the cylinder rod of the ejecting cylinder shortens as the thickness of the ring blank increases, but lateral pressure is always applied to the ring blank, so that the side of the ring blank always remains parallel to the vertical plane, ensuring the flatness of the side of the final ring and preventing ring flash.
