Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile water pump installation equipment, in particular to a press-fit device for an engine water pump pulley. Background Art

[0002] like Figure 1 As shown, the water pump is mainly composed of a pump housing 1, a pump shaft 2, a bearing 3, a water seal 4, an impeller 5 and a pulley 6. The pump shaft is installed in the shaft cavity of the pump housing through the bearing and the water seal. One end of the pump shaft is connected to the impeller, and the pulley is assembled to the other end of the pump shaft. The existing press-fitting method of the pulley adopts the cooperation mode of the pressure head 7 + the inclined wedge mechanism 8, and the self-locking characteristics of the inclined wedge mechanism are used to ensure that the inner ring of the bearing is subjected to force during the press-fitting process, and the inner and outer rings of the bearing are not subjected to shear force during the press-fitting process. The self-locking principle of the inclined wedge mechanism is that the component force along the inclined surface direction is less than the static friction force, that is, it can maintain self-locking when subjected to static pressure. However, there will generally be vibration during the press-fitting process, and the self-locking function will fail in the vibrating state. When the press-fitting force is large and the roughness and roundness of the parts change greatly, the vibration generated is large, resulting in self-locking failure, displacement of the inclined wedge mechanism, and shear force on the inner and outer rings of the bearing, thereby causing damage to the bearing raceway. This damage is not easy to detect during the assembly process, and the life of the bearing will be greatly reduced during use, leading to after-sales compensation problems. Utility Model Content

[0016] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an engine water pump pulley press-fitting device comprises a base 9, a support plate 10, a floater 11 and a distance sensor 12. The middle part of the base can support a vertical pump shaft. The support plate can float up and down on the base through the floater arranged in a matrix. The support plate is used to position the pump housing. The distance sensor is fixed on the base and is used to measure the displacement of the support plate.

[0017] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the structure of the base 9 includes a bottom plate 901, which can be fixedly connected to the working table of the press machine, and a support block 902 is welded at the center of the bottom plate; this structure is simple, low in production cost, long in service life, and strong in versatility;

[0018] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the structure of the support plate 10 includes a plate body 101, a pump housing positioning hole 102 is provided at the center of the plate body, and guide holes are distributed on the edge of the plate body; this structure is simple, low in production cost, long in service life, and strong in versatility;

[0019] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the structure of the floater 11 includes a guide column 111 and a spring 112. The lower end of the guide column is fixedly connected to the edge of the bottom plate, the spring is sleeved on the guide column, and the upper end of the guide column passes through the guide hole on the edge of the support plate and is connected to the locking nut 113. The guide column can guide the support plate to slide. This structure is simple, low in production cost, easy to maintain, and has a long service life.

[0020] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the distance sensor 12 is a displacement sensor, and the probe of the displacement sensor is in contact with the support plate; the displacement sensor has the advantages of easy digitization, high precision, strong anti-interference ability, no reading error, easy installation, and reliable use;

[0021] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a slot is provided on the support block of the base 9 corresponding to the pump shaft, and an FSR film pressure sensor 13 is provided in the slot, so as to further determine the contact between the pump shaft and the support block, and further ensure the press-fitting quality;

[0022] In order to further ensure the positioning stability of the pump casing on the supporting plate, a positioning pin can be provided on the upper supporting plate, and the positioning pin matches the connecting hole on the flange surface of the pump casing.

[0023] Because the engine water pump is light and small, the press machine used is a servo press, and a rectangular pressure head is provided on the outer end of the cylinder piston rod; Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, after the pump casing, pump shaft, bearing, water seal and impeller are assembled together, the flange surface of the pump casing fits the support surface of the support plate, the impeller is located in the positioning hole, and the annular flange on the flange surface of the pump casing forms a positioning match with the positioning hole to form a stop structure. After the shaft hole on the pulley is aligned with the upper end of the pump shaft, the press is started, and the pressure head on the press pushes the pulley, pump casing and support plate downward together. When the lower end of the pump shaft contacts the support block of the base, the displacement sensor reads the displacement value of the support plate and transmits it to the servo system as the reference value of the press size. The servo system controls the pressure head to continue to move downward according to the incremental displacement value set by the program until the pulley is pressed to the target displacement value to ensure the assembly size; in order to further ensure the assembly quality, a pressure sensor is added, and the pressure sensor transmits the pressure signal to the servo system to further determine that the pump shaft and the support block are in contact; the diameter of the pressure sensor is smaller than the pump shaft, and the support block does not interfere with the impeller.
