Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of internal and external tooth groove processing, in particular to a universal gear shaping machine clamping tool. Background Art

[0002] The crankshaft is the core part of the engine. It has a complex shape, poor rigidity, high precision requirements, long process route and great processing difficulty. Most of them have timing sprockets or gears, splines, etc. on the crankshaft body, and some have angle requirements with the connecting rod neck, so most of them are processed by gear shaping.

[0003] Common gear shaping clamping tools include: center hole at both ends + spring chuck auxiliary clamp main shaft neck drive; three-jaw automatic centering clamp shaft neck drive. Angle positioning method: use the slider to slide in, and manually withdraw after positioning; or use the automatic centering jaw to clamp the connecting rod neck and withdraw after positioning.

[0004] For example, the patent with publication number CN218476112U proposes a vertical gear-slotting fixture for a toothed crankshaft, which can not only clamp the workpiece, but also position the workpiece in the axial direction, thereby ensuring the position accuracy of the gear and the journal on the circumference and improving the processing quality and efficiency.

[0005] However, due to the complex structure of crankshafts and their different lengths and sizes, the existing gear shaping fixtures have the following problems: 1. Since the up and down movement adjustment range of machine tool tools is limited (only about 80mm), products of different lengths need to be processed on different machine tools, or tool connection plate adjustments need to be designed separately; 2. When designing gear shaping tooling for different products, it is necessary to design clamping and angle positioning tooling separately according to the size, length, structure, etc. of the crankshaft, resulting in complex tooling design and high manufacturing costs; 3. When switching production, the tooling needs to be replaced as a whole, and the debugging time is long. Utility Model Content
