Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wheel hub processing, in particular to a universal wheel hub milling clamping and positioning device. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the automotive industry, the market has more and more demands for the diversified appearance of forged wheels. Forged wheels have transitioned from the original single round shape to complex curved surface shapes. For the production of complex curved surface wheels, relying solely on forging technology can no longer meet the molding of all shapes, and some wheel shapes need to be completed through milling technology. During production, the basic shape of the wheel is forged using the forging process, and then the complex shape is milled. During the milling process, the positioning and clamping accuracy and reliability of the wheel are directly related to the processing accuracy and operation safety of the finished product.

[0003] At present, wheel hub milling processing mostly uses traditional clamping tools for positioning and clamping, which has low positioning accuracy and is prone to causing positioning deviation of the wheel hub, resulting in differences in processing shape, and even some products are scrapped due to lack of processing. At the same time, the existing clamping tools with positioning mandrels have poor versatility. For wheels with different center hole diameters, special clamping tools need to be made separately, resulting in high tooling production costs and difficulty in on-site tooling fixture management.

[0004] Based on this, developing a hub milling processing clamping and positioning device to ensure the hub positioning accuracy and improve the milling processing yield is a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0022] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a universal wheel hub milling clamping and positioning device comprises a base 1 for connecting to a machine tool processing platform, a positioning seat 2 is fixedly arranged on the base 1, and a positioning slider 3 is arranged on the positioning seat 2 corresponding to the center hole of the wheel hub for center positioning of the wheel hub. Specifically, a plurality of guide grooves are provided in a circumferential array on the positioning seat 2, and the positioning slider 3 is radially slidably connected in the guide groove. The outer side of the positioning slider 3 is arranged corresponding to the inner diameter of the center hole of the wheel hub, and the inner side of the positioning slider 3 has a conical surface structure 31, and the conical surface structure 31 is axially slidably matched with a tensioning cone sleeve 4 of the same taper. During clamping, by adjusting the tensioning cone sleeve 4 to move downward and squeezing the conical surface structure 31 of the slider, the circumferentially arranged positioning sliders 3 slide outward along their respective guide grooves at the same time, and finally press against the inner diameter of the center hole of the wheel hub to complete the center positioning of the wheel hub.

[0023] In this embodiment, the positioning slider 3 slidably connected to the positioning seat 2 realizes the tightening and positioning of the positioning slider 3 on the center hole of the hub through the conical surface structure 31 and the conical surface of the tightening cone sleeve 4. The positioning slider 3 with radial preload eliminates the matching clearance between the positioning mandrel and the center hole of the hub in the transmission positioning method, and improves the positioning accuracy. At the same time, the positioning slider 3 tightened in the center hole of the hub increases the reliability of the hub clamping and ensures the safety of the operation. In addition, the positioning slider 3 with radial expansion and contraction setting can adapt to the positioning and clamping of wheels with different center hole diameters, which improves the applicability of the positioning device.

[0024] Preferably, a connecting hole 41 for inserting a clamping bolt is provided at the bottom of the tensioning cone sleeve 4, and a threaded hole 21 is provided on the positioning seat 2 corresponding to the connecting hole 41. The clamping bolt passes through the connecting hole 41 and is screwed into the threaded hole 21, thereby pressing the tensioning cone sleeve 4 onto the conical surface structure 31 of the positioning slider 3 to realize the center positioning and clamping of the wheel hub.

[0025] Preferably, the positioning device further comprises a positioning insert 5 provided at a position corresponding to the hub window, for positioning the hub radial angle. Specifically, a positioning column 6 is provided at a position corresponding to the hub window on the base 1, a positioning countersunk hole 61 is provided at the top of the positioning column 6, a positioning pin 51 is provided at the bottom of the positioning insert 5 corresponding to the positioning countersunk hole 61, and the positioning pin 51 is plugged and matched with the positioning countersunk hole 61. The outer contour of the positioning insert 5 is made according to the shape of the hub window.

[0026] When positioning, the wheel hub is pre-tightened by the positioning slider 3, while maintaining a certain radial rotational freedom of the wheel hub. The positioning column 6 is fixed in the appropriate position of the base 1 in advance, and the wheel hub is radially rotated to align the wheel hub window with the positioning column 6. Then the positioning insert 5 is inserted into the wheel hub window and the radial angle of the wheel hub is adjusted. When the positioning pin 51 at the bottom of the positioning insert 5 is inserted into the positioning countersunk hole 61 at the top of the positioning column 6, it indicates that the radial angle of the wheel hub meets the requirements. At this time, the positioning slider 3 can be adjusted to be fully tightened to complete the center and radial angle positioning of the wheel hub. Finally, the positioning insert 5 is removed and the wheel hub milling process can be performed.

[0027] Preferably, a strong magnet 62 is provided at the bottom end of the positioning column 6, and the positioning column 6 is detachably connected to the base 1 through the strong magnet 62. This embodiment facilitates the position adjustment of the positioning column 6. When locating and positioning the wheel hub of different wheel types, the operator can quickly complete the repositioning of the positioning column 6 through the strong magnet 62 to quickly adapt to the positioning and locating of different wheel types, thereby improving the working efficiency.

[0028] Preferably, a pressure plate 7 is provided on the base 1 corresponding to the wheel lip of the hub for positioning and clamping the hub. Specifically, a fixing hole 22 for fixing the pressure plate 7 is provided on the base 1, and the pressure plate 7 is connected to the fixing hole 22 by a fastening bolt.

[0029] Furthermore, the fixing holes 22 are provided at intervals along the radial direction of the hub to meet the clamping requirements of wheels of different sizes. This embodiment further improves the applicability of the positioning device. When processing different wheel types, there is no need to separately make dedicated positioning tooling, which saves tooling production costs and reduces the difficulty of managing tooling fixtures at the production site.

[0030] Furthermore, if Figure 1 As shown, the base 1 is provided with three support blocks 8 for supporting the wheel hub, and the support blocks 8 are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction corresponding to the wheel lip of the wheel hub. This embodiment improves the over-positioning caused by the lower wheel lip of the wheel hub directly contacting the upper end surface of the base 1 as a whole, and ensures the axial positioning accuracy. In this embodiment, the fixing hole 22 is opened on the support block 8, and the pressure plate 7 is connected to the support block 8 by fastening bolts.

[0031] The above disclosure is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For ordinary technicians in this field, without departing from the principle of the present invention, any deformation made should be regarded as belonging to the protection of the present invention.
