DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] Below in conjunction with the attached Figure 1 to Figure 2, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model are clearly and completely described, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to the following.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] At present, there are two main ways to twist the crankshaft by 90° in China:

[0025] First, use a twisting machine to twist. This method is feasible when the product technology is mature and mass production is in progress; however, in the trial production stage when the crankshaft is twisted 90°, the trial production process is long, and the number of modified parts and times is large. When this method is used, the product and mold need to be remade after the design is modified once, so there are many sets of molds, the manufacturing cycle is quite long, there is serious waste, and the investment is huge. General enterprises cannot afford its cost;

[0026] The second method is to process the raw materials directly. This method requires a high-precision milling and turning machining center, which is quite expensive. In addition, this method requires cutting the metal flow line during processing, which affects the product performance and further affects the crankshaft trial production results.

[0027] Based on the above technical problems, the utility model provides a simple tooling for trial-producing a crankshaft twisting 90°, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a first clamping ring and a second clamping ring for fixing a workpiece 13, and a driving device for driving the first clamping ring to rotate with the horizontal axis of the workpiece 13 (i.e., the crankshaft) as the rotation axis;

[0028] The first clasp comprises a first upper clasp 1 and a first lower clasp 2 adapted to the first upper clasp 1;

[0029] The second clamping ring includes a second upper clamping ring 3 and a second lower clamping ring 4 matched with the second upper clamping ring 3 .

[0030] Further, such as Figure 1 As shown, the driving device includes a lathe 7, a chuck 8 rotatably arranged on the lathe 7, a claw 9 arranged on the chuck 8, and a tailstock 10 arranged on the lathe 7, and the tailstock 10 can move in the horizontal direction; a socket 11 is arranged on the side of the tailstock 10 close to the chuck 8.

[0031] Working principle: The qualified forged workpiece 13 is loaded into the first lower clamp ring 2 and the second lower clamp ring 4. Afterwards, the first upper clamp ring 1 adapted to the first lower clamp ring 2 is installed above the first lower clamp ring 2 to form an upper first clamp ring, and the second upper clamp ring 3 adapted to the second lower clamp ring 4 is installed above the second lower clamp ring 4 to form a second clamp ring. Figure 1As shown, the first clamping ring fixes the large end (i.e., the left end) of the workpiece 13, and the second clamping ring fixes the small end (i.e., the right end) of the workpiece 13, and then the tailstock 10 is moved away from the clamping claw 9 (i.e., to the right), and the right end of the second lower clamping ring 4 is extended into the insertion hole 11, and then the tailstock 10 and the second clamping ring are moved to the left synchronously until the clamping claw 9 (the clamping claw 9 is the prior art) clamps the first clamping ring. Then, the chuck 8 is rotated so that the chuck 8 rotates with the horizontal axis of the workpiece 13 as the rotation axis. During the rotation process, the first clamping ring is driven to rotate, and the second clamping ring does not rotate; as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, during the rotation process, a flame spray gun 14 needs to be arranged at the main journal of the workpiece 13, and the main journal of the workpiece 13 is locally heated by the flame spray gun 14. After the temperature reaches 850°, the chuck 8 is rotated 90°, thereby achieving the purpose of twisting the crankshaft 90°.

[0032] The tooling used in the utility model is extremely simple, which not only meets the requirements of low cost and short trial production period, but also meets the product performance and customer trial production needs.

[0033] Further, on the basis of Example 1, Figure 2 As shown, the first lower snap ring 2 is provided with a first snap ring lock buckle 5 (existing technology) for locking the first upper snap ring 1 and the first lower snap ring 2; the second lower snap ring 4 is provided with a second snap ring lock buckle 6 for locking the second upper snap ring 3 and the second lower snap ring 4. By providing the first snap ring lock buckle 5, the first upper snap ring 1 and the first lower snap ring 2 can be preliminarily fixed; by providing the second snap ring lock buckle 6, the second upper snap ring 3 and the second lower snap ring 4 can be preliminarily fixed.

[0034] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, screws are provided between the first upper snap ring 1 and the first lower snap ring 2, and between the second upper snap ring 3 and the second lower snap ring 4. In this solution, by providing screws between the first upper snap ring 1 and the first lower snap ring 2, the firmness between the first upper snap ring 1 and the first lower snap ring 2 can be further improved on the basis of the first snap ring lock 5; by providing screws between the second upper snap ring 3 and the second lower snap ring 4, the firmness between the second upper snap ring 3 and the second snap ring can be further improved on the basis of the second snap ring lock 6.

[0035] Further, on the basis of Example 1, Figure 1 As shown, a square step is provided in the insertion hole 11, and a step structure matching the square step is provided on the second lower clamping ring 4. In this solution, by providing the square step, it is possible to ensure that the second clamping ring does not rotate.

[0036] Further, in order to improve the convenience of the rotation of the chuck 8, as Figure 1As shown, the chuck 8 is provided with a pry hole, and a crowbar 12 is movably provided in the pry hole. When in use, the staff extends the crowbar 12 into the pry hole, and then rotates the crowbar 12 with force, so that the chuck 8 can be rotated, and the operation is extremely convenient.
